[Bug 28341] New: Printing Issue in Tally ERP 9 on Wine 1.x

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28341

Summary: Printing Issue in Tally ERP 9 on Wine 1.x
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

While printing from Tally ERP (Windows Based Accounting Software). there are
black patches printed where letters and words are shrinked by the software.

For example in a report where there is a list of entries. Tally shrinks some
words when listed entries are longer that the column width to fit them in the
column. In such cases those shrinked entries are not printed or black
rectangles are printed by the printer.

Result is same when they are printed to PDF. So we cannot even print reports to
pdf and then finally print them to the printer.

After reading some wikis and documentation. I thought that replacing the
generic ppd from wine registry with the appropriate ppd will make some changes.
but it doesn't give any positive result.

I am sure that it is about handling of drivers by wine and cups.

What's your exact 'wine --version'? Please retest with a more recent one.

It has been tested with wine version 1.3.27. I have found the same problem with
the latest available in ubuntu repository which is 1.2.2. but its not working.

I read everywhere that wine uses cups but still not able to understand if
something interprets printing data between cups and wine. if so that could be
the place where further testings can be carried on.

Thanks Dmitry I was unaware about the severity clauses of wine-bugs. Can you
guide what else should I attach to the bug report to make it easier for people
work on it.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 2 years.
Is this still an issue in current (1.7.6 or newer) wine? If so, please attach
the terminal output in 1.7.6 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).
