  Ok, but the cups autoconfiguration set
"wineps" in win.ini, and it seems

 wineps16.drv.so in /etc/lib/wine/lib/wine can help?  
 No, you can't really fix that with symlinks, the dll names are built
 into the dlls themselves. If the win.ini entry is set by the cups code
 then it should be fairly easy to change it to store wineps16
 instead. This may break something else, but I guess we'll see...

As i touhgt a symlinks is not enough... No chance for alias? Isn't there a
mechanism to make wine to use different dll if required to do so? Anyway, i'll
be very happy If you'll change cups code a bit: is very frustrating this
impossibility of edit the autodetect configuration, and the fact it removes any
other printer configured in the [windows] section in win.ini (is it a bug?)!
...forgive me if i forwarded the previous mail only to you. I was at university
and i did a mistake with the web-mail.
