--- Comment #6 from Reluctant0 <WineHQ at gcarl.net> ---
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one trying to keep Captool alive.

I just got Captool to find the default printer by changing the driver in the
registry entries for printers.  The driver that works is wineps16.drv.

There are three registry entries related to printers:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\PrinterPorts

When installing a new virtual drive through PlayOnLinux the driver in these
registry entries is set to wineps.drv.  This posed no problem for my Quicken98
install.  But it's what causes the printer message in Captool.

As an example when installing to a new virtual drive 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows is set
to

PDF,wineps.drv,CUPS:PDF

and should be changed to

PDF,wineps16,CUPS:PDF 

I made this change in the three keys above and the printer message went away.
I noted that running Captool updated the WIN.INI [windows] entry to match the
registry.
