You know, I never thought about this before, but is it possible to have the printer default to the ltsp kernel?
For example, have ten copies of the kernel in 10 directories and each directory has a printer defaulted somewhere in it. Is that possible, or is it all dependent on the login? Another question to ask would be whether there's a printer option that can be loaded into lts.conf or some other config file we have.
