Actually, under KDE, there's an "Actions/Print" context menu
item, but personally I open the file in its designated app and
print from there. It seems to be missing in GNOME by default,
but it's easy enough to press enter, wait a second, press
control-P and enter again to queue it for printing.
I do notice GNOME's file manager has an "Edit/Send To" menu item
which you could use if you really want to just use lpr or
enscript.
