Hello,
there is an ancient piece of software, written in the days when Windows 3 was
state of the art (shortly after the dinosaurs where wiped out), that I use every
now and then. Unfortunately, there is no more up-to-date version, so I have to
stick with the old one.
The program works quite well using Wine, but it can not print. When I try to
print I get a message saying that some commands are not usable, that the printer
driver can't be loaded, that there is an error and that the program will be
shut down.
Other applications running on Wine can print very well (via CUPS), it's just
this one that can't.
Can I do anything to make this application print? It would be sufficient enough
to save the printout to a PS or PDF file. I already tried to fiddle about the
win.ini to install a PS-printer, but every time I start Wine, the printer
entries are reset to default values and the manual added entry is deleted.
What else can I do? Would it make sense to try to install a printer driver from
Windows 3 or will this blow up Wine?
