Re: CUPS Printing from Windows via IPP

You probably need to uncomment the following lines in
/etc/cups/mime.types and /etc/cups/mime.convs:


/etc/cups/mime.types:
#application/octet-stream


/etc/cups/mime.convs:
#application/octet-stream       application/vnd.cups-raw        0      
-


That will allow raw printing.
