You can establish the default printserver in the '/etc/hosts' database with
the 'well known server' entry:

---------------------------------
printserver   xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx       # Internet address of the default server
                                    # you want to use.
---------------------------------
This also works for 'timeserver' and 'nameserver'.


As far as I remember, the print command takes (if no printer argument is given)
the first printer in the '/etc/qconfig' file. This could be another way of 
setting a default.

I'm now at home and not working on our RT, so I will try to answer the rest
on Tuesday when I've access to machine and doc.
