Hello,

I've looked through the docs and I've tried to get printing working, but have failed.  
Can anyone help me?  I have a HP Color LaserJet 4500 networked printer, located 
at 192.168.101.21 with queue name of lp1.  I think Wine detects this information
automatically but I'm missing something.  

Here is output when starting Wine:

Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A:
Could not stat /cdrom (No such file or directory), ignoring drive D:
err:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo Error 2 getting PPD file name for printer 'Office_Color'
fixme:winspool:AddPrinterW DocumentPropertiesW on printer 'L"Office_Color"' fails
err:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo Error 2 getting PPD file name for printer 'Office_Color'
err:winspool:AddPrinterW DocumentPropertiesW on printer 'L"Office_Color"' failed!
err:winspool:PRINTCAP_ParseEntry Office_Color not added by AddPrinterA (1797)


Here is the (I think) relevant section of my wine config file:

[spooler]
"FILE:" = "tmp.ps"
"LPT1:" = "|lpr"

[ppd]
"ps1" = "/home/pmcnett/c/windows/system/HP-Color_LaserJet_4500-Postscript-cups.ppd"


Here is my /etc/printcap file:

# /etc/printcap
#
# DO NOT EDIT! MANUAL CHANGES WILL BE LOST!
# This file is autogenerated by printconf-backend during lpd init.
#
# Hand edited changes can be put in /etc/printcap.local, and will be included.
