the system default.
When using printconf, the /etc./printcap file is
automatically refreshed from the database of printers
managed by the system (usually through the
"printtool" command), and the queues in /etc./
printcap.local are appended to the resulting file. The
default queue in LPRng is defined as the first queue
in /etc./printcap, and therefore it is not possible for
the Linux Printer Package to change the default when
some queues have otherwise been defined using
printtool.
LPD systems identify the default queue as the one
named "lp". Thus, if there is already a queue by this
name, and if it doesn't have an alias, then you won't
be able to change the default. To work around this,
you can either delete the queue or rename it by
manually editing the /etc./printcap file.
