It's not obvious if we want this.

Printing via context menu for images could  fail for an number of reasons as it might not be an actual 'image' that you are clicking on (background image in CSS, Flash, overlay element) but to the user they don't know that if they expected the print option to be displayed.

Alternative reliable options is opening an image in a new tab / window and printing the page. It's also possible to select the image like a text selection and print.
