Hi David,

sorry for the long delay in responding; I hope you've found a solution

Never mind :-) Yes, I did.

echo "Default" $PRINTER > ~/.lpoptions

Good idea - though it seems to me that by doing it this way the printer contained in the user's .lpoptions is taken. What I was looking for was a user-independent but workstation-dependent solution.


Or do I misunderstand your example above?

What I did was a script in /etc/profile.local that reads out the workstation's name and writes the appropriate printer into that very $PRINTER. The only thing that was still missing was setting the default printer for kprinter by calling "lpoptions -d $PRINTER" at the end of that script.

Regards
Rolf
