I would recommend that you use the print manager setup to configure your print driver. I found out the hard way that changing mime.types and mime.convs reverts back to the original settings when upgrading the print manager. Instead go to Menu->System Settings->Printing. After entering root pw, edit your printer. Select the print driver tab and change the driver to generic, then select the "Raw Print Queue" Save your changes and you should be in business. I believe the instructions are a bit vague. It wasn't until I bugzilled the problem that I found out the right way to make it work through upgrades. <xnip> -- Clifford Snow
