This does not solve the problem.

You need to do it only one time in your network.
Linux is always for safety a two Level User administration -
otherwise printers would be abused. 

This is not true; and the user is asking about GNOME, not CUPS.

The user is asking for a USER LEVEL default printer, not changing the
default printer of the workstation.

Unfortunately I am not aware of any - simple - way to do this.  It is
baffling that it is not available, at least for GNOME apps, as a
gsetting.
