Hum, indeed, that is the command suggested by CUPS for setting the
default printer:
***
http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/options.html
Setting the Default Printer
If you normally use a particular printer, you can tell CUPS to use it by
default using the lpoptions(1) command:
lpoptions -d printer
***
But using CUPS web interface and set the default printer from there
should have the same effect. Didn't that work for you? :-?
