Hi,
I have been using Wine to run QuickBooks for a few months now. When I
originally got it set up, I had to define a "pseudo printer" in order for the
checks to print from the manual feed tray. I did this by copying the ppd
file for my printer, and in the PaperSize: Letter section added the
postscript code to set manual feed on, then defining a printer in the system
registry that used this ppd file. I also changed the ps.c program to
(always) turn off manual feed at the end of the postscript output.
This "pseudo printer" is not configured in LPRng: I want the output to go to
the default (and only) physical printer on my system.
Now, I do CVS updates about once a week, as I'm also hoping to get Quicken
running under Wine. (No luck yet, as Quicken's internet configuration
doesn't run. I'll start working to debug this in about a week or two...) My
updates have been simply "cvs update && ./configure && make depend && make &&
make install". My last update was last Friday (6/14).
Today, when I tried to print checks from QuickBooks, my "pseudo printer" was
no longer defined, so the printer did not print from the manual feed tray.
It's been about a month since I last tried to print checks. (It worked right
then...)
Has there been a commit to CVS that changed how printing is configured? I
have not made any changes to any of my configuration files since I got
QuickBooks initially running. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I
could get this going again?
Thanks for the help,
Carl
