Create a shell script to run when you click the button rather than just
running emacs. Using sh, you could do something such as:
#!/bin/sh
export PRINTER=hp300
/usr/local/bin/emacs -display :0.0
exit
Change the path to emacs, whatever the path to emacs is on your
system, the display you're on, and your PRINTER variable, and you should
be set.
Then replace that entry for the button to run the shell script instead of
emacs.
Cheers,
