There are at least two problems. First, there is compatibility with Matlab,
and second, the output rendered by the print() function will be noticeably
different.
I took a look at the manual. I think the confusion is due to the examples
chosen. The manual gives an example using defaultlinecolor. The property name
is "color" and the object type is "line". There is no "defaultlinewidth", but
there is a "defaultlinelinewidth" and could be a "defaultaxeslinewidth", a
"defaultpatchlinewidth", etc.
