Then, for each new print queue.


Changes to the standard defaults for the queues are set in CUPS:
 * ''Options Installed'':
  * Option Tray: Lower Paper Trays
  * Finisher SR3150
 * ''General'':
  * Fit to Paper: Nearest Size and Scale - this means A3 jobs released to an A4-only printer will come out shrunk to fit on A4 paper.
  * Duplex: Long Edge
  * Color Mode: Color / Black and white (as per name)

Tray selection defaults to 'Auto Select' though this does not appear in the CUPS GUI. Print jobs should be left to auto-select the correct tray unless a specific tray is required e.g. bypass tray.
