I am using RedHat 9.0, with mozilla 1.5 I downloaded as a tar file
(mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-1.5.tar.gz). This mozilla doesn't support Xprint by
default, and this is also what you miss. Do do it, I had to add the line

user_pref("print.print_method", 1);

in mozilla preferences file (you can do it prefs.js, but it is recommended to
do it in user.js - I also have the definions to enable trutype fonts), and
also to download the Xprint rpm 

http://xprint.sourceforge.net/download/xprint-2003-04-16-release_008-0.8.i386.rpm

to install it and to start the Xprint server which it installs (using
chkconfig and service commands).

It really prints very nicely;  I would remark that the Xprint server is really
an X server that prints from data clients put on the X display :33.
Interesting.
