I guess You need to set a few useful variables, for example, see part of my .profile:

[Quoted] PRINTER = lj5 # Real printer name from /etc/printcap (BSD Style)

[Quoted] TK2_PRINT = "lpr -P'%n' -#%c -h" # BSD Print style
[Quoted] TK2_PRINT_STATUS = echo
[Quoted] NLS_LANG = AMERICAN_AMERICA.US7ASCII # Set your native charset

I hope that helps.
