Hi All, This is my keeper file on the default printer. Hope this helps someone else. -T Exactly what purpose does the "server default" printer serve? Is it even possible to send the CUPS server a print job with no printer specified? AAAAHHHH!!!!!! CUPS: manually correct the default printer Reference(s): https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Print_Settings_with_CUPS https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups/issues/818 CUPS Web UI (https://127.0.0.1:631) fails to update /etc/cups/lpoptions to a new default printer. Note that this is on purpose, The Web UI's default printer is the server's default. Not the local (client) computer's default. The local computer's defaults are found in: user: ~/.cups/lpoptions global (if not user default): /etc/cups/lpoptions Fix action: First, list installed printers: $ lpstat -p printer Cups-PDF is idle. ... printer HLL2300D ... printer HLL2300D_ManualTray ... To set the system defualt: # vi /etc/cups/lpoptions Default Printer_Name_from_lpstat_above # systemctl restart cups To set the user's default: $ lpoptions -d Printer_Name_from_lpstat_above To double check: $ lpstat -d system default destination: Cups-PDF Note: this is the local user default, not the system default. reported under: lpstat gives incorrect wording for the default printer https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups/issues/819 Example files involved: System: # cat /etc/cups/lpoptions Default HLL2300D User: $ cat ~/.cups/lpoptions Default Cups-PDF _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
