I think there should be a space on either side of the question mark.

Try changing File > Print Setup > Printer Expression... from Vim
default:
system('lpr' . (&printdevice == '' ? '' : ' -P' . &printdevice) . '
' . v:fname_in) . delete(v:fname_in) + v:shell_error
to
system('lp -d Color-LaserJet-2600n ' . v:fname_in)
Also, it might be faster testing these at the command line (Ctrl+L,
then Ctrl+R,+ to paste from the clipboard).
Does that work?
