.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fIlpr\fR submits files for printing. Files named on the command
-line are sent to the named printer (or the default destination if no
-destination is specified). If no files are listed on the command-line,
-\fIlpr\fR reads the print file from the standard input.
-.SH THE DEFAULT DESTINATION
-CUPS provides many ways to set the default destination. The "LPDEST" and
-"PRINTER" environment variables are consulted first. If neither are set,
-the current default set using the \fIlpoptions(1)\fR command is used,
-followed by the default set using the \fIlpadmin(8)\fR command.
+\fBlpr\fR submits files for printing.
+Files named on the command line are sent to the named printer or the default destination if no destination is specified.
+If no files are listed on the command-line, \fBlpr\fR reads the print file from the standard input.
