I guess I don't understand why you have had to assign this in lts.conf. Doesn't your lts.conf setup indicate that the printer is connected to terminal ws043 via a local usb port? From the description of your printer you are trying to print over the network via IP address. I would think this would mean that as long as your server has the networked printer installed and set as default, you would not need any configuration in lts.conf for the printer. All our printers here are setup to print via IP address. I simply open System->Administration->Printing->New Printer->Check local or Detected Printer->Then under the radio button for "Use a detected Printer" all of my IP based printers just show up and I select them for the list. As long as the new printer is set for default, then it will automatically be the default for all my clients. I have however assigned permanent IP's to all my clients, and then set up scripts to set default printers on login. So all machines in certain labs automatically default to the printer located in that lab. Can you print to the printer from the server? I would troubleshoot there, once that works then move to a client.
