unclear at this time. i copied the gtkrc file into the 3.0 director, and i did see the print choices in evince change. but now they've changed back.
i straced it, and it's definitely not trying to open the gtk-3.0/gtkrc file, but it IS looking for settings.ini.
neither filename changes it's "interesting" behavior.
it keeps showing a "port1" printer entry and i have no idea why it's doing that.
i think it's bad though, because if i click on it it says "retrieving printer information" and then appears to lock up.
i can always print to postscript and lpr it, so not a huge deal, but it's behavior is kind of odd.
