Emacs printing with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

I am trying to setup a development environment that mirrors my Windows and SCO Unix systems. I use emacs and I am having trouble printing. I keep getting the error message;

Symbol's function definition is void: default-printer-name

I have googled this and for possible answers for printing in general. To date I have not been successful.

Any help would be very much appreciated.
