The FreeBSD way of making CUPS the default print daemon is to add these
two lines to your /etc/make.conf:

CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=yes
NO_LPR=yes

The first line tells the CUPS port to remove the BSD lpr when you do the
'make install', the second line prevents the reinstalling of the BSD lpr
from /usr/src.
