It seemed to work for me, adding the line:
gtk-print-backends = "lpr,file"
(The print dialog looked good, though I did not verify that anything
actually printed).
From tracing, it looks like a better choice for a fix is to create
/usr/evolution28/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc, so as not to change an existing
(non-config) file.
