More than likely you are running into a 1.2.x limitation in raw
queue support - printing of multiple files to a raw queue or with the
raw option will not work in 1.2.x.

You either need to upgrade to 1.3.x or, if the queues are raw
themselves just use a simple interface script that just does a
"cat $6".
