Cups configuration is no longer okay. needs some help with # # Raw filter... # # Uncomment the following filter to allow printing of arbitrary files # without the -oraw option. # application/octet-stream application/vnd.cups-raw 0 - See link for upstream "won't fix". SO, must be fixed in DISTRO configs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install cups 2. try to print from remote 3. should work, always did work, but NOW fails with Print file was not accepted (Unsupported format 'application/octet-stream'). Actual Results: Print file was not accepted (Unsupported format 'application/octet-stream'). Expected Results: PRINT This is just a minor fix, but isn't something USERS should ever have to deal with. Printing should, by now, "just work".
Please re-read the upstream explanation, this is done intentional and we won't change upstream behavior. Be sure your CUPS setup/versions on both ends are sane, remote printing should generally work just fine.
