I changed my default printer in

   Control Center > Peripherals > Printers

But, it didn't change the default printer of the lp command.
That is, when I printed things like

   $ lp mydoc.ps

the job was still sent to a different printer.

So, I had to change the default printer for the lp command by, say,

   $ lpoptions -d hp2700

(This command modifies ~/.cups/lpoptions .)  Oh, and I use CUPS.
