<b>lpoptions</b> displays or sets printer options and defaults.
If no printer is specified using the <i>-p</i> option, the default printer is used as described in
<b>lp</b>(1).
<p>If no <i>-l</i>, <i>-o</i>, or <i>-r</i> options are specified, the current options are reported on the standard output.
<p>Options set with the <b>lpoptions</b> command are used by the
<b>lp</b>(1)
and
<b>lpr</b>(1)
commands when submitting jobs.
<p>When run by the root user, <b>lpoptions</b> gets and sets default options and instances for all users in the <i>/etc/cups/lpoptions</i> file.
Otherwise, the per-user defaults are managed in the <i>~/.cups/lpoptions</i> file.
