This is fixed in 1.2.1, or via patch to the current version. The following error is in /var/log/cups/error_log: Print-Job client-error-document-format-not-supported: Unsupported format 'application/octet-stream'! Even if the application/octet-stream entries are uncommented in /usr/local/etc/cups/mime.types and mime.convs. Also, it appears that the port clobbers the mime.convs file when it is installed. >How-To-Repeat: This is most often encountered when printing to CUPs printers from a Windows client with the windows driver. Especially if you are not using samba (instead using IPP). Samba has a workaround for this, apparently. Otherwise, try to print raw data without passing -oraw to the command. >Fix: Upgrade to 1.2.1, or apply patch str1667.patch from following location: http://www.cups.org/str.php?L1667 >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
