The Official Ubuntu Book (Prentice Hall) is ok for newbies.
eg. In Kubuntu 9.10, I used to have a printer, Laserjet 5M, but it now
doesn't work, I have removed it and re-installed it, and checked all the
connections,
and get There was an error during the CUPS operation:
'client-error-document-format-not-supported'. when I try to do a self
test.
Any body else had similar problems? I suspect one of the upgrades.

Try :-
Uncomment application/octet-stream in /etc/cups/mime.types
and uncomment application/octet-stream in /etc/cups/mime.convs.
I notice F12 Cups config is different and no longer has these two files
in /etc/cups. Try `locate mime.types`. My cups and samba setup :-
http://discoverlinux.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=36
These files are in /usr/share/cups/mime/..
and it is not commented in either file.
there is also a mime.types in /etc, but it has different format and
application octet-stream is not commented in that.
