/dev/fd must be a link like this on your system:

------------------------------------------------------------------
[test@majax best]$ ls -l /dev/fd
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 13 Sep 28 13:55 /dev/fd -> /proc/self/fd/
[test@majax best]$
------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this the case for you?

installing a fresh 2006 rc2, printing does'nt work. After raising debug level in
cupsd.conf, i saw that :

Since printing works fine on my mdk 10.1 box, i have tried to put the
foomatic-gswrapper of the 10.1 (foomatic-filters-3.0.1-0.20040828.1mdk)
which use "| cat >&3" instead of /dev/fd/3, and it works.
