Common OS X application behavior is to use the system  print dialog. 
That dialog does not belong to the application any more than the
standalone print dialog kprinter4 belongs to my script.

That's what I'm asking you -- if you think that the system print dialog
is a part of chrome just because you set set chrome to use it.  Obviously
it is *not* part of chrome, so when you print from chrome with it set
to use the system print dialog instead of its own, you are going *outside*
of chrome to print.  This is true of *all* OS X applications that make
use of the system print dialog.
