printing AND memory

[Richard Canada]

Does anyone know why I am getting an error message about "Insufficient 
memory" when I try to print from wine?  I can see the printer is there, 
but I cannot print.  I am running Lotus Notes 5.0.6.  Thanks

Read the debugging howto.
"Insufficient memory" is a genuine error message and in most cases has
nothing to do with the real cause.

Lotus Notes will display this message whenever the printer driver fails
to initialize -- for any reason.  (OT, there's a user interface "Hall of
Shame" somewhere on the 'net with a whole section devoted to Notes!)

Run it with '--debugmsg +psdrv', and see if you can spot why the driver
is failing.  This can produce a lot of output, so you may want to
redirect stderr to a file:

wine --debugmsg -all,+psdrv nlnotes 2> ~/wine.log

or something like that.

If you can't figure out what's going on, send me the file.

BTW, what version of Wine are you running, and did this work for you
before?

I did this and here is what it told me:

trace:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo 'Wine PostScript Driver'
err:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo Error 2 getting PPD file name for 
printer 'Wine PostScript Driver'
trace:psdrv:PSDRV_CreateDC (WINEPS Wine PostScript Driver LPT1: (nil))
trace:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo 'Wine PostScript Driver'
err:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo Error 2 getting PPD file name for 
printer 'Wine PostScript Driver'
trace:psdrv:PSDRV_CreateDC (WINEPS Wine PostScript Driver LPT1: (nil))
fixme:pthread_kill_other_threads_np

Any suggestions?

Regards,

Richard

It looks like you haven't specified a PPD file for your printer.  The
right method for configuring this varies, depending on how you've
configured your printer, so I need to know how you set up your printer.
