This is how I have my printer set up:
(snip from my wine config file)
[afmfiles]
"file<n>" = "/usr/share/fonts/afms/adobe/pagd8a.afm"
[psdrv]
"ppdfile" = "/windows/wine/TEMP/ADOBE/HP/HP4PLUS6.PPD"
[serialports]
"Com1" = "/dev/ttyS0"
"Com2" = "/dev/ttyS1"
"Com3" = "/dev/ttyS2"
"Com4" = "/dev/modem"
[parallelports]
"Lpt1" = "/dev/lp0"
[ppdev]
;; key: io-base of the emulated port
;; value : parport-device{,timeout}
;; timeout for auto closing an open device ( not yet implemented)
;"378" = "/dev/parport0"
;"278" = "/dev/parport1"
;"3bc" = "/dev/parport2"
[spooler]
"FILE:" = "tmp.ps"
"LPT1:" = "|lp -ddevelp -tRICHARD"
"LPT2:" = "|gs -sDEVICE=bj200 -sOutputFile=/tmp/fred -q -"
"LPT3:" = "/dev/lp3"
I have set up the win.ini file correctly, here is the file:
[devices]
Wine PostScript Driver=WINEPS,LPT1:
[windows]
device=Wine PostScript Driver,WINEPS,LPT1:
[PrinterPorts]
Wine PostScript Driver=WINEPS,LPT1:
BTW, I am using LPRng on my RedHat 7.1 box. I have no local printers,
only network printers that I print to through a print server. Any more
suggestions, I would appreciate it.

Richard
