I had no look at the problem with the option variable fpprintprec, but I
would use the function truncate to get the desired number of digits,
e.g.
(%i13) float(truncate(1234/100)/10);
(%o13) 1.2
(%i14) float(truncate(1234/10)/100);
(%o14) 1.23
(%i15) float(truncate(34/10)/100);
(%o15) 0.03
This approach can be generalized.
