* I had no file ~/.lpoptions
* /usr/bin/lpoptions returns an empty line (no information)
* /etc/cups/lpoptions contains the line
Default hp1150c

* I tried creating a file ~/.lpoptions with the same info as
/etc/cups/lpoptions but this did not help

* Any other information, ideas? Is there any docs on configuring printers in
debian-kde?
