Hello, I've been trying to print under apps running with wine for a while. In wine docs it says wine automatically detect CUPS printer. Well, I have CUPS installed, everything prints great, except apps running under wine, which say that no printers are installed. CUPS version installed. Debian woody version - 1.1.14.3 Wine version installed. Prepackaged Deb 20021013. Can anyone point me and explain how can I truly print right now under Wine (using cups or not, wine docs are not very trustfull. (I would thank a lot if the help would be detailed). If somebody could help me get it working I would personally offer myself to better wine doc section for printing. Thanks in advance. _________________________________________________________________ Charla con tus amigos en l?nea mediante MSN Messenger: http://messenger.microsoft.com/es

In the meantime, that means that if the repackaged Deb 20021013 was not compiled with CUPS support, then the CUPS printing likely will not work. So I guess, you could try to find out whether that package has CUPS support, or try to find another package that has it. Or just get source and compile (be sure to uninstall the version you have first). Yes that is a little more difficult to figure out the first time, but it really is not as hard as it first appears (in my opinion). And once you have done it once, it is very easy anytime thereafter.
Hi, I've gotten CUPS support working quite easily with the latest Suse RPM, just an FYI. I however am having a different problem. I can't actually print. The print job spools, but it isn't what I'm expecting. I've got 3 printers, an hp5, without PS support (not surprised this fails), an HP 4500N, which locks up upon receiving the print job, and an HP 8150GN, which does nothing. Does anyone have any experience with this setup? All three printers work fine for other printing applications, i.e. OpenOffice, or printing text files. Thanks for any responses and help.

I would say it looks like CUPS support is installed, as I see all of my printers. I'm wondering if the builtin driver has been broken in newer releases? I find it odd that it hangs the HP4500, requesting a power cycle of the printer. (code 49 FF02 if you're wondering). It's complaining about something it got from postscript.

I have even upgraded to the latest CUPS software from source.
