[Samba] Ack! No Answer for my Printer Troubles?

[Gustavo Courault]

Hi!
I suggest the follow:


In the /etc/cups/mime.convs you must uncomment the follow line:

#*/*                    application/vnd.cups-raw        0       -

It must say:

*/*                    application/vnd.cups-raw        0       -


and in the /etc/cups/mime.types file you must uncomment:


#application/octet-stream

it must say:

application/octet-stream


The lines there are at the bottom of the two files.

I expect that the print works now! :-) 
Regards
