samba - Dec 2001 - SOLVED [cups] print_job: Unsupported format "application/octet-stream"

Gustavo Courault <courault@gigared.com> has solved this for me with
the following advice and I have enclosed my smb.conf file in case it
may help anyone, I'm running Samba-2.2.2 and CUPS printing to a
Epson-777 injet via a Edimax $40 printserver attached to the back of
the printer with a static IP address assigned to the printer.

My OS is RedHat-6.2

I uncomment the line in the /etc/cups/mime.types file: 

application/octet-stream 

and in the /etc/cups/mime.convs file: 

*/*                    application/vnd.cups-raw
