I altered the queue on an unstable client we had in a previous mail to lpadmin -p test -v ipp://192.168.7.65:631/printers/CL3005Wr -E -m <the 1600W foo2zjs PPD> On a Wheezy server sharing its queues I did lpadmin -p CL3005Wr -v file:/tmp/TEST -E -m raw Printing /etc/debian_version produces TEST, which has the same size and is the same type as the test file produced previously on the client. With your printer I would expect TEST to print from the server with something like 'cat TEST > /dev/usb/lp0' and by changing the device URI to "usb://KONICA%20MINOLTA/mc1600W?serial=06796".

Considerations such as altering the behaviour of cups are above my pay grade. :) Regards, Brian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
