Well, xdvi doesn't have printing support, but most postscript viewers
do. For example, I beleive the default for latex-suite on linux is
ghostview which does do printing. Do

:TVarget ps

to set the target for viewing to ps, bring up ghostscript by doing \lv
and then print from there. You can then restore the target to dvi... You
could do all this with your own mapping. For instance:

map \lp :TTarget ps<CR>\ll:lpr -P printer_name <C-r>=Tex_GetMainFile()<CR>:TTarget dvi<CR>
