Can't print anymore

Post by Sávio Ramos »

After the last upgrade wine can't print anymore.

I tried print with notepad, the error is below:

$ notepad
Invoking /usr/lib/wine/wine.bin notepad.exe ...

fixme:winspool:WINSPOOL_EnumPrinters We don't handle
PRINTER_ENUM_CONNECTIONS

A windows message appears with the information:

Before you can perform printer-related tasks such as page setup or
printing a document, you need to install a printer. Please install one
and retry

Any help?

Thanks.

What Wine version is that? I haven't seen that message in a long long time.

Do you actually have some CUPS printers installed and working form Linux?

I have same problem.
My OS: Ubuntu 8.04.1 AMD64 with last updates.
Terminal output:
  • sapsan@sapsan-home:~/.wine/drive_c/windows$ ./notepad.exe
    fixme:winspool:WINSPOOL_EnumPrinters We don't handle PRINTER_ENUM_CONNECTIONS
But it happened after I has made update wine by this instruction: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb

Just before I has made update of wine I tried click to File->Print menu in Notepad and has normal dialog window with PDF printer (I have only PDF printer - no one real)

Aptitude log:
  • Aptitude 0.4.9: log report
    ...., ...... 14 2008 23:30:20 +0300

    IMPORTANT: this log only lists intended actions; actions which fail due to
    dpkg problems may not be completed.

    Will install 1 packages, and remove 0 packages.
    741kB of disk space will be used
    ===============================================================================
    [UPGRADE] wine 1.0.0-1ubuntu4~hardy1 -> 1.1.2~winehq0~ubuntu~8.04-2-0ubuntu1
    ===============================================================================

    Log complete.
This experiment was made just few minutes ago.

P.S. sorry for my English

1.1.2 apparently broke printing in 64 bit Hardy. The user who first reported it also said that it was already fixed in git. You can try downgrading to 1.1.1, upgrading to the latest git (if you want to build Wine yourself), or waiting for 1.1.3.
