I think we speak of different things.  I can say "C-c C-p" in
a pdf-tools buffer and print the pdf file - that works.  I want to be
able to e.g. say "C-u C-c C-p" and be asked about which pages to print,
or whether to print 2-up etc.  It would even be enough to be prompted
for additional `lp' arguments.

Best,
