Are you using MSIE? what file extension are you testing with? i was having similar problems using this technique with PDF files. only with MSIE, sometimes it would print text crap to the screen and sometimes it would prompt for download. MSIE is notorious for disregarding headers and trying to handle files off of their extensions.
This is a problem that has been fixed, then broken, then fixed again in various versions of IE. Best bet is to 'upgrade' to the latest version of IE, or apply the weekly service pack, or better still use Opera ;-)
