It's a very long time since I printed from a native ROS m/c, so I can't
remember how to do that.

You don't need to use Uniprint to print to a networked printer from VA.

I used to use Uniprint till I bought a networked printer, but it was slow
because it printed the image as a bitmap. Not sure if this has changed, since
I don't use it now. (Well, not for printing; it's essential for URL launching
& clip sharing.)

Maybe the easiest solution is to print to a file from the Kinetic & transfer
that to VRPC to print out.
