I don't think I have an lprng queue handy anymore, either, actually.  I 
did a bit of source-diving on debathena-lprng and didn't find anything to 
convince me that '-' is a synonym for 'all'.  (But my BSD lprm(1) clearly 
gives '[-]' in the usage!)

I would kind of want to add the SYSTEM_CUPS check when lprmdash is set, 
but that doesn't actually affect the behavior, so I'll ACK this.
