Pages 1 and 2 were uneventful. On page 3 (Configuring the CUPS Print Server), the following files do not exist on my system: /usr/local/etc/cups/mime.types /usr/local/etc/cups/mime.convs Perhaps the recommended setting: application/octet-stream Is already in the source code (?): toor@freebsd:/root # grep octet-stream -r /usr/local/include/cups /usr/local/include/cups/cups.h:# define CUPS_FORMAT_AUTO "application/octet-stream" Page 4 was uneventful. I didn't need to go any further -- the CUPS web user interface works and the printer dialogs in LibreOffice and eVince work. Thanks, everyone, for the help. :-) David
