           Summary: Documentation says Wine and CUPS get along - they don't
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-documentation
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: wowbagger at sktc.net


The documentation on Wine printing suggests that the best solution to printing
under Wine is to use CUPS - that if you have CUPS set up, printing "just works"

Wrong - Wine cannot correctly identify what printers I have under CUPS, nor can
it configure them - in fact most attempts to manipulate print setup cause Wine
to fault.

Until Wine and CUPS actually get along, I would suggest the documentation be
changed to reflect this.
