Hi,
although wine in MacOSX works generally good enough (see test.winehq.org about
release 1.1.28), I recently visited the print menu in notepad and wordpad to
see whether printing would work (in order to complete the FAQ).
All that happened is that the printer ejected a blank page.
Was anyone more successful than me at printing?
- My printer appears in Notepad's and Wordpad's menus, so that's a start.
- The page size and portrait/landscape selection dialogue appears.
- The OSX printer status shows something is happening.
- However the printer only ejects a blank page.
- The console shows no particular log line.
o Do my troubles arise from the fact that I compile Wine only with
standard MacOS libraries?
E.g. liblcms (color management) is missing from my system (but no error
message signals that it would have been used at run-time).
o Should I have tried a "real" app instead of (fake) notepad?
Using Mac OS X 10.5.7 and wine compiled myself (see Wiki.winehq.org about how).

Jörg Höhle
