    To people seeing this problem (needing to define a raw print queue for
    Windows printing to a Linux-hosted queue to work), do you have
    'printing = cups' in /etc/samba/smb.conf? Does putting it there
    help?

    I'm starting to wonder if samba is missing a
    'cupsAddOption("raw",[...])'. Raw printing should work with this
    (equivalent to 'lpr -oraw ...') even with octet-stream commented out
    in mime.convs.

    This is how gimp-print manages to print raw data to a non-raw queue
    for instance.

    Tim.
