It works perfectly. The menu would be less ambiguous if "lpr-command" were called "print-command" and "lpr-switches" were called "printer-command-switches". Yes, I realize that's not going to happen. Is it a good guess that all the menu item names in Customize are the same (after making lower case and replacing spaces with dashes) as the elisp variable names which they set?
