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