I think what he's telling you to do will work under 10.4. However, I
know
that under 10.5, if you have "Last Printer Used" selected in the
Print & Fax
prefs panel, this overrides the setting made with lpadmin. In that
case, you
have to:
in addition to the lpadmin command. And of course you may want to
remember
that pref and restore it when you're done.
BTW, I don't remember under what circumstances the change is
reflected in
the Print & Fax prefs panel...
Great job, Scott, thank you!
I did in fact have my settings to "Last Printer Used". I will just
choose a default printer instead which will work fine.
When I do that, the GUI Prefs panel is instantly updated after
performing the lpoptions command just like he said.
He didn't know I had that setting enabled, and I didn't know he
didn't, typical crossed wires.
Thanks again!
