Have you tried /usr/lib/openoffice/program/spadmin ?

 Thanks Jeff

Wasn't sure where to find that file on Debian.

Anyway - that was the right file BUT the OOo still shows the default as
the now obsolete printer even though the spadmin config file shows the
DX6050 as the default and prints a perfect test page. In OOo however, when
wanting to print a page, it tries to spool it to the old printer and throws
a print error.
What am I overlooking?

Do you just run /usr/lib/openoffice/program/spadmin as root not as normal
user?
And you may first look at ~/.openoffice.org2/user/psprint/psprint.conf.
