A spot-on suggestion. I ended up with /usr/local/bin/feh with
the contents
/usr/bin/feh --action "xpp %f" "$1"
Then took it a step further and rebound action_0 to ctrl-P to fit with
other applications. In .config/feh/keys:
action_0
action_0 C-p
"xpp %f" can be replaced with a printing command of your choice. It's
not so hard to print from an image viewer without its own printing
dialog after all.
Thanks.
