So, why don't we have a printer icon on the desktop? After all we have a
trashcan and a floppy icon too. In these days where CUPS is ubiquitous,
that shouldn't pose much of a problem. That way you could drag a arbitrary
file to the printer icon and let it be printed by whatever app is
registered to handle that file type. No need to clutter the Nautilus
toolbar with this.
