We have found that reconfigure ldev 6 to not be that dummy printer is not a
good idea.
Thats because it can come up with a system without LP when patching  and
updating OS.

So most customers add a new ldev (eg 19)  and also call that LP.

delete the existing dev 6 & class LP and then add them the way I would do
the same printer with any other device # & class??
