12 I'm not a dev but my last attempt at using 1.3.x was not successful because
13 of a change in (more strict AFAIU) input handling. Other distros were
14 bitten by this as well:

16 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cupsys/+bug/203944

18 (find many more by googling for "cups Unsupported character set").

20 Do you happen to know if this is solved in recent versions? My
21 understanding is that changing samba's "unix charset" to something else
22 would fix this, but that is not feasible for me at this point.
23 If there is any other way I'd love to hear about it. :)

25 thank you
