Richard, assuming that your printer is already configured and you want 
to print to the default printer
it is as easy as:

lpr mydocument.pdf

Where, of course, you specify your real filename instead of mydocument.pdf.

Note: the lp command is often interchangeable with the lpr command. 
That's just a bit of
funkiness from the BSD/System V split in UNIX oh so many years ago.
