Bug Description
I have an Epson Stylus Office BX925FWD, or what I think is an Epson Workforce 840 series printer. In Quantal (Not Precise - then it was fine...), printing a test page results in 'Idle - can't detect file type' in the Red Hat system-
This didn't happen in Precise, and it is likely a fault in cups, not Red Hat's utility, as I had set the Printer up using localhost:631 and returned the same error...

This worked previously in quantal, so it is probably caused by an update, and printing anything else works fine.
