A couple of thoughts...

Some printer information seems to be saved in the document. I find that 
if the document is saved after printing, and the same printer is still 
available next time you print it, that one is selected by default. If 
the printer has been removed, or the document is opened on a different 
system where that printer doesn't exist, it probably selects the system 
default.

Some applications remember the last printer you used, and select it by 
default regardless of the system default. I think Firefox does that. 
Don't know if LibreOffice does.

Mark.
