I suspect that you are using a 'client driver' to print via the 'raw' printer on cups and the upgrade ended up changing /etc/cups/mime.types and /etc/cups/mime.convs
check out... http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/CUPS-printing.html#id...
for information on how to print using client driver and enable 'raw' printing support on your cups shared printer
Craig, if you looked at your own files you'd notice that Fedora no longer ships the config files that way.
FWIW, I have a recently installed F10 and it contains....untouched by me.
/etc/cups/mime.convs
[egreshko@f10 cups]$ grep raw mime.convs # without the -oraw option. #application/octet-stream application/vnd.cups-raw 0 -
and
/etc/cups/mime.types
[egreshko@f10 cups]$ grep octet-stream mime.types application/octet-stream
So, one is line is commented and one is uncommented... The link provided indicates both need to be uncommented but only in so far as to achieve the desired results. My interpretation of the link doesn't lead me to conclude *how* the files are shipped or even if the author is intending to imply how the files are shipped.
Either way, it doesn't really matter does it? I mean the goal here is to get things to work the way Brian needs/expects.
