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
