AirPrint on non supported (shared) printers-HowTo OS X 10.6.5 Build 10H574
What you might want to try (I found that on a German Blog some hours ago):
From *System Preferences* remove existing printer(s)
launch AppleScript editor
cut&paste the following 2 lines:
*do shell script "echo '# enable AirPrint*
*image/urf urf (0,UNIRAST<00>)' > /usr/share/cups/mime/airprint.types" with administrator privileges*
run that script and enter your admin pw
This will create text-file @ /usr/share/cups/mime/ that will (should) re-enable AirPrint support again (at least on the current build of OS X 10.6.5 10H574), which can easily be removed.
reboot
add printer(s) again + share them through *System Preferences*
Keep in mind that this patched MAC (OS X 10.6.5 Build 10H574) must be up and running in order to use AirPrint!
It works for me, but if it doesn't work for you for whatever reasons: *failure is always an option!*
