fwiw:
Gentoo uses 
chris@imogen ~ $ dvips ./card/card.dvi
This is dvips(k) 5.95a Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software 
(www.radicaleye.com)
' TeX output 2006.01.05:1658' -> |lpr

However it is so utterly simplistic to change that behaviour by a shell 
alias, that I really don't feel the urge to comment one way or the other.
For example:

alias dvips="dvips -o -"

that will direct all output to stdout.
