This is probably a bug in the Type 42 font download code.  Could you
try editting your ppd file (by default generic.ppd) and chaging the line
*TTRasterizer: Type42
to
*TTRasterizer: None
this will get Wine to download the fonts as Type 1 outlines instead.

Let me know if it makes a difference.

Huw.

I did but still got the same result.  
I read the documentation about printing.
I am using CUPS for printing
Should I config ppd file?
I did it anyway.  I installed cups-drivers-1.9-0
I unzipped and copied HP-LaserJet_4-ljet4-cups.ppd.gz in my ~/.wine/ and 
I have added [ppd] in "config"
but got the same result.

My printer is HP Laserjet 1200.  When I set up the printer using CUPS I 
am using HP Laser-4 driver and I can print test page.

Many Thanks.

Please have a look of the scanned version of my 2 printouts. 
(http://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/~csltsang/wine_printout.png
You will see some English letters are overlapping.

And for the Chinese on the 2nd memo, it should contain 5 words but now 
only the first word can be printed.
