I'm running debian sarge and have installed wine with "apt-get" (wine 20041201). Afterwards I configurated it with winetools. Everything went fine. I also installed the Internet Explorer and Office 2000. There were no problems during the installation and IE and Office run without problems besides printing. There I get error messages like "no printer installed". Is anybody familiar with this? If possible I'd like to print from WORD. I'm wondering a little because a few weeks ago I did the same installation on a Mandrake system and there printing went out of the box. Perhaps a debian specific problem? Flori

Else please report to wher the package comes from (either followup there or use reportbug your_package) Cheers Alban
Printing from Linux works well. It is configured via localhost:631 and I have introduced a Lexmark Z11 (lz11 1.0.1) via CUPS.

If you use cups you must find a .ppd file for your printer. I just googled around. Put the file in for example /usr/lib/wine, and make this entry in the config file : [ppd] "generic" = "/usr/lib/wine/ps1.ppd" In this case you must rename your .ppd file ps1.ppd Dorpm?ller wrote:>Printing from Linux works well.

I did not knew that ! However on debian sarge , the ppd are created on the fly while configuration is done and should be in /etc/cups/ppd If not (i am not used to the web interface configuration process), all the available ppd are in /usr/share/cups/model (or could be generated from the linuxprinting.org site, a few non free one are downloadable there too). As simple ln -s /etc/cups/pp/your_print.ppd /usr/lib/wine/ps1.ppd should be enough. Cheers Alban
Thanks for helping me. I found the problem. I had to install "libwine-print". In debian the wine packages are splitted.
