Ithamar, thanks for the reply.

Ok. I have a better understanding, but more questions as a result:

1) There is no default=5Fsettings(BNode* printer) method in Driver.cpp, or
 anywhere in the code. I assume that you will want me to add this method to
 Driver.cpp=3F

2) default=5Fsettings() should write the attributes to the printer BNode and
 return them in the BMessage=3F

3) where should the 'actual' default setting values be located, with 'hard
 coded' defaults in the code, or in a settings file like 
~/config/printer=5Fdefaults
 =3F

4) config=5Fpage() could be called with an empty settings BMessage, which
 should then call default=5Fsettings()=3F

5) The constructor for PageSetupWindow class gets the settings BMessage pre-set
 from these previous calls, but what saves these settings back to the BNode so
 that other applications can use them=3F
