[Now I'm on Mint 12 with wine 1.3.35] Yes, I still have the problem (although I've ignored it). What seems to happen is that when I use the printer manager to remove a printer, wine doesn't learn of / recognize the deletion. I'll try editing the registry files you pointed out (but I screwed up my system last time I tried that). I may also check whether resetting my system using winetrick will do the job (my guess is that it will). Thanks, Rob L
