Severity: wishlist


As Xprint accessing printers through other printing systems which have the 
concept of a default printer, it would be nice if Xprint selected one of 
these as its default printer.  I couldn't find a means of setting the default 
printer other than by setting the env. var. XPRINTER.  Here's a crude patch 
to the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ script to set XPRINTER from the output of 'lpstat 
-d'.  As most printing systems provide a BSD-lpr/lpd-compatible lpstat, I 
think this should work right for most people.

Hi,

we haven't shipped the xprint package in a few years.  Closing this bug.

Cheers,
Julien
