A technician is setting up a printer on a Linux workstation.

In Linux, the lp command is used to manage print jobs, including setting the default printer. The lp command allows users to send print jobs to a printer queue, check the status of print jobs, and cancel print jobs, among other functionalities. By using options and parameters with the lp command, a technician can specify a particular printer as the default for future print jobs, ensuring that documents are routed to the correct printer without needing to specify it each time.
