This is a page of developer notes from 2008 on printing in Wine:
http://wiki.winehq.org/Printing
This includes no plans to implement the Windows Spooler Service, as
CUPS does spooling just fine.
OTOH, you have a real-life application that claims to need it ... I'd
suggest filing a Wine bug! (Is the Dell software downloadable for devs
to test with?)
