Summary: PrinterPorts does not exist in win.ini Product: Wine Version: 0.9 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-gdi-(printing) AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: brian@worldcontrol.com
An application I use has a printer selection dialog which would core dump on selection. Turned out that in MS Windows installs, vmware, and win4lin, the windows/win.ini would contain a section like:
[PrinterPorts] Samsung ML-1710=ADOBEPS4,\192.168.0.3\samsung,15,45 front=ADOBEPS4,\192.168.0.3\front,15,45
However, no such section existed in wine's windows/win.ini.
This missing section caused the application printer selection dialog to explode.
I manually created the following entry
[PrinterPorts] samsung=WINEPS.DRV,LPR:samsung,15,45 front=WINEPS.DRV,LPR:front,15,45
and now printer selection in the application works correctly under wine.
