This helped, thanks. It was hard to find in the documentation, though.
However, it's only part of the problem. Once set, I get:

    $ lpq
    lpq: error - no default destination available.

I can fix this by setting a default printer in ~/.cups/lpoptions, but it
seems that if I'm using a remote queue I should be using the default
queue on the remote server.

Even if it doesn't do this automatically, I ought to be able to set it
manually but:

    $ sudo lpadmin -d hpoj
    lpadmin: Forbidden

So, what am I doing wrong here?
