-m not sure how you are configuring you printer but in cupsd.conf the
line:
 <Location /printers/PSC-2110>
 Should appear after the:
 # Lines below are automatically generated - DO NOT EDIT
 and be generated by the system for the default printer. Did you put
 that line explicitly in the file? Also how did you set the default
 printer? From the cups web interface or by executing:
 lpoptions -d PSC-2110 ?
