[Bug 17894] New: Raw printing does not work
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17894 Summary: Raw printing does not work Product: Wine Version: 1.1.18 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: giulioo(a)gmail.com System: Ubuntu 8.04 Wine 1.1.18 (binary from WineHQ APT Repository) I googled, asked on the web forum and searched bugzilla, but no one had a definitive answer about this issue, ie a way to get raw printing working from Wine.
From here http://wiki.winehq.org/Printing it's not clear it it's considered a bug.
I thought to open a bug about this so developers can definitively say whether this is actually a bug or if the agreement is that it's up to the Linux side to do something about this (convert back from PS to ascii or something). Raw printing is useful for those applications which expect the printer to receive their pre-formatted data as is: apps which output PCL directly, label printer software, .... Steps to reproduce the problem: - Create a raw printer queue in Linux/ubuntu which points to a NON PS printer (ie: pure PCL or text printer). - Run $ echo ABCD | lpr -P raw_queue and see that the printer prints ABCD. - Then run $ wine notepad.exe Type ABCD Print to the raw_queue and see that the printer prints the PostScript data produced by Wine even if the Linux queue is defined as raw. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
