[cups.general] Raw Printing Doesn't work...

[Chris]

Hi,

I'm running CUPS on a debian Squeeze system.  I am trying to set up  
two, known-good, printers with raw print queues.  Every time I send a  
print job to them, however, it vanishes into thin air.  Cups reports  
that the job was printed successfully, and there is no error output  
anywhere that I can find.

However, when I use a ppd on the queue, it works as expected.  I  
remove the ppd and set it back to a raw queue, and once again it  
doesn't work.

I have done this in the past with no issues.  I have even done it with  
one of these very same printers.  I have looked at the docs, and find  
them to be inconsistent with what I see on my system.  There are no  
mime.convs and mime.types files in my /etc/cups directory.  There are,  
however, two files named raw.convs and mime.types.  They appear to set  
up to be the same.  I have been hunting on this for days now, and I  
cannot find any word regarding this issue, or the mysterious raw.convs  
and raw.types files.

I would be very appreciative if someone could illuminate me here,  
because I'm at a loss.

My raw.types file:
application/octet-stream

My raw.convs:
application/octet-stream application/vnd.cups-raw 0 -
