The 'lpstat -t' output quoted above is for after the PC is started and
AFTER using cups admin. It clearly says the system default destination
is a print queue with the name 'HPDeskjet3050A'. 'lp ~/.profile' should
go to this print queue by default. 'lp -d HPDeskjet3050A ~/.profile'
also goes to the same queue.

This is what you get after the PC is started but BEFORE using cups
admin? This is a *different* print queue using a different device (which
is ok). The queue name is 'HP_Deskjet_3050A_J611_series' and there is no
system default destination. Therefore 'lp ~/.profile' will not work and
you have to use
lp -d HP_Deskjet_3050A_J611_series ~/.profile
Does that print?
