I usually set these printers to print postscript or PCL but I have a need to print ascii text with escape sequences or with prescribe commands to be interpreted by the printer. If I use the -oraw option or the -odocument-format=vnd.cups-raw option we get nothing to the printer at all and the log does not show any errors.

Did you enable raw printing (which is diasbled by default)?

To enable, uncomment the line
	application/octet-stream        application/vnd.cups-raw        0      
-
in mime.convs anmd the
	application/octet-stream
in mime.types.
