Hi Miguel,

Thanks for testing. Your feedback is important. We removed the print
functionality from LyX (and thus the icon). Please read the file
lib/RELEASE-NOTES for an explanation as well as instructions on how to
get the functionality back if you desire. Here is the relevant part:

* Support for printing from within LyX (File> Print) has been removed. LyX's
  printing support was very limited, and most users will want to print after
  reviewing an output document (e.g., a PDF), anyway, which can be done from the
  PDF viewer.
  Users who would like to restore this functionality can create a
  "printer" format from within LyX and then define, say, a
  pdf->printer converter that does nothing but call lpd, or a2ps, or
  whatever. The "printer" will then be available as an export option.
