Could not open printer

[tiggerfan]

I'm running fedora 39 and using the wine rpm packges from winehq.org. when wine was upgraded from stable 8 to stable 9 it has broken printing from Quicken 2000 basic. I use this to print checks.

I've tried debugging it using
export WINEDEBUG=+psdrv,+winspool
and don't see any errors or useful info.

I can print from notepad.

The only error i see is from Quicken pop-up window that only says: "Could not open printer. Check your printer selection."
I've even tried a new 9 env and still get the same message.

Any ideal what i can to to try to debug and/or solve this issue?

This sounds similar to this problem:

You might be able to check this with the gdi debug channel.

i enable gdi and i can't tell if this is the same issue, i only have two relative lines in the output.

0128:trace:gdi:StartDocW 090101A5 0031DB08
0128:trace:gdi:StartDocW DocName L"Intuit", Output (null), Datatype L"RAW", fwType 0

cheers.

I suspect it is the same issue.
The change has now been merged into Wine.
If you can, try compiling Wine from git yourself.
Or you can wait until (probably) next weekend and try Wine 9.1.

Hi,
I did give Wine 9.1 a try and that has resolved the printing issue. So i'll be staying with 8.0 until the next stable 9.x version is released. thanks for your assistance.
