kprinter --nodialog is a functionality programmed in the kprinter executable 
and is not a feature of the KPrinter library class.

Also, konqueror uses the KStdAction::print that is used by almost all 
KApplications. Making konqueror behave differently will probably mean 
unplugging its StdAction and replacing it with your own device.

Of course, it possible to actually produce such a device, using what is 
available in kprinter, but it is probably more than a few lines change:
