Description of problem: The print dialog can't print to raw queues, i.e. queues that have no PPD. With these queues, the HTTP 'GET' request will get a 404 response. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gtk2-2.10.4-8.fc6 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.lpadmin -p rawqueue -v file:/dev/lp0 2.Start OpenOffice.org Writer 3.Press Ctrl-P 4.Click on rawqueue Actual results: Print button not clickable, error message in xsession errors about the GET response Expected results: Print button clickable, just no PPD options to change. Additional info: Users might configure raw queues for SMB printers, for example.

We just should pass the application's PostScript straight through for raw queues, and obviously there are no options to tweak in that case.
can we figure out if the queue is raw from cups? Should be an easy fix in that case.
You get an HTTP 404 when trying to fetch the PPD. That means there is no PPD, and so it's raw.
Matthias Clasen: can You give some status update on that bug. Some applications are unable to print!
I'll build an update with a fix for this shortly
Update is in testing now
gtk2-2.10.8-3.fc6 has been pushed for fc6, which should resolve this issue. If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.
