Hi,

Can someone suggest why the following is observed:

user1 at machine:~$ lpstat -d
system default destination: PRINTER2
user1 at machine:~$ su
Password:
machine:/home/user1# lpadmin -d PRINTER1
machine:/home/user1# lpstat -d
system default destination: PRINTER1
machine:/home/user1# exit
exit
user1 at machine:~$ lpstat -d
system default destination: PRINTER2
user1 at machine:~$

This is on Debian Sarge w/ 2.6 kernel and Cups 1.1.23.

thanks
