[Wine] Wine finds bogus printer and cant add correct printer
Wine insists that the only printer that I have on my system is an HP PSC 2175, this is an old printer that I long ago stopped using. My current printer is an HP 7310 using CUPS but I can not convince wine to use it. I have tried deleting the registry keys for the 2175 ( it is there in regedit ) but they just keep coming back the next time I run regedit. I have tried deleting the entries from win.ini but they come back also. I have deleted .wine and reinstalled. I have checked the printers using System Settings->printers and the only printer I have is the 7310. How do I convince wine that I do not have an HP 2175? Where does it get its printer list from? etc. If I run notepad.exe or photoshop (which works great under wine) the only printer that is available is the 2175. Details Kubuntu 8.0.2 ( 2.6.24-20-generic ) wine 1.1.2 dual boot system with Windows XP and Kubuntu

[Wine] Re: Wine finds bogus printer and cant add correct printer
thank you for your suggestion, but it list 5 printers Officejet_7300 (Default Printer) Officejet_7300_fax Officejet_7300_series Officejet_7300_series_fax PDF the 1st 4 all point to the URI hpfax:/usb/Officejet_7300_series?serial=MY49GG84VC0407 the last one points to: cups-pdf:/ I printed a test page and printers 1 and 3 both print on the HP printer correctly not sure where to look next, I am really impressed by wine and like to get this fully functional.
