Hi there, I've just installed the official wine 0.9.3 deb file from winehq on an x86_64 system running Ubuntu. After working out some library issues, everything seems to run fine, except that I can't print. CUPS seems to be set up fine. I have one printer configured which I can print to, yet when I try to print from any Windows application, it tells me that I must install a printer before I can print. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Kevin

Make sure you have cups-devel installed before your compile Wine! That should do the trick. (This only applies if you are compiling from source.)

Unfortunately, I installed from the official debs at winehq.org. Could it be that they were not built with cups-devel installed? Anyway, maybe I'll try to build the package myself after the holidays.
