Epson Printer Install MacThis is a great hint. Thanks!
 Coincidentally, I recently had the need to add and remove printers to a lab full of Macs. I sure wish I'd known about these commands. But I thought I'd share my method, which is completely different, but which also works well, and is pretty easy.
 1. Set up one system with all printers, exactly as you'll want them on the other machines.
 2. Copy the entire /etc/cups folder to the other machines.
 3. Restart the cups daemon (as root): killall -HUP cupsd
 4. (Optional) If you have network users, restart Directory Services (as root): killall DirectoryService
 That should do it.
 Also, the command I use to kill all print jobs is: cancel -a -
 -systemsboy
If you're using a whole lab of machines, you may want to try and use scripting to configure the machine's printers. I found this set of scripts a while ago and modified it as needed for our environment. I can now configure any number macs' printer configurations on the fly without difficulty. Additionally, in regards to clearing printer queues, the way I do that to be 100% sure that it's really going to do it is to add a LoginHook to each machine so that every time a user logs in, the following script is run, which clears out the CUPS server's queues and restarts it. Works brilliantly, and haven't had a report of a blocked print queue on a mac since :-). 
Yes, I later found that the crude script I wrote above doesnt' quite work when it processes unexpected input, eg when printer queues are paused. Then I discovered the cancel -a command which makes it redundant anyway. mdb - Ta! I've been looking into scripts. I will probably whip up a LogoutHook to clear jobs when users are finished whatever they're doing and logout. 
Thanks for the tip. I've found that if you use the -D flag (description), you can have a name that includes spaces. If the description is set, then the printer will show up in OS X with that name instead of the formal name. I've revised the the script to include checking for the printer prior adding, and to include a few HP LaserJet print options as well. Hope this helps. 
Woohoo! This is great! I was able to research the correct options for my Canon machines via lpoptions -v .. and I'm now a printer-configuring machine. :-)
I may have spoken a bit too soon. My setup works perfectly with this script except for
 lpoptions -d 'MyCopier' -o EFFinisher='Finisher'
 The machines in question are Canon 8070 copiers with the ImagePASS S1 RIP, which supports an option of 'Finisher' for the K1 finisher unit. Although this is what shows up when you read the options from a manual configuration (via Printer Utility), it doesn't work the other way: setting it up from the command line doesn't show the finisher options in the Print dialog. :-(
 any help appreciated.
Hi..thanks so much for this tip. I still haven't found a way to set the new printer as the user's default. I thought perhaps the lpadmin -d flag would do it, but (at least) the Printer Setup Utility doesn't think the default has changed. Any ideas? Thanks again.
To set a default printer, add the following line to the above script after the lpadmin command:
 # Set Printer as Default
 lpoptions -d '${prName}'
Great article! 
Lucid has put together a free, open-source tool called PrinterSetup. Adobe premiere pro cc 2016 mac download.
It would be great to bundle the information in this article with PrinterSetup? 
Please consider creating a *NIX command line print queue management document and formally submitting this to Lucid for inclusion into the PrinterSetup project. 
FYI : PrinterSetup supports setting a default printer. However if you would like to set the default printer using the command line with a tool such as ARD then the following command should help : 
$ lpoptions -d cupsqueuename
Further details are available within the lpoptions man page, kindly hosted by HMUG. 
All the best from, the Lucid Information Systems Team. 
PrinterSetup is now a component of PrintingWorks,
 the open-source cross-platform print accounting solution.
The latest version of PrinterSetup features, scripts which :
Cancel all jobs on all print queues.
 Start all print queues.
Screen casts are now available to help you get started
with PrinterSetup.

The Lucid Team.
