LPD systems identify the default queue as the one named

 

 

“lp”. Thus, if there is already a queue by this name, and if

 

 

it doesn’t have any alias, then you won’t be able to change

 

 

the default. To work around this, you can either delete the

 

 

queue or rename it by manually editing the /etc/printcap

 

 

file.
