Wine can't run those drivers. Hi The troubleshooting documentation that came with the printer suggests updating the lpt.vxd file if problems are encountered. I would assume from this that it uses this driver to access the scanner. From looking on the web I can only find reference to lpt.vxd for Windows 95, is this because the EPP driver works OK in later versions or is it because the driver is implemented differently? I don't own a copy of Windows 2000, which is the only version that does not produce file not found errors, so I cannot copy the Windows 2000 version of lpt.vxd to my wine setup. If I download an from Microsoft an updated lpt.vxd for Windows 95 and copy it into the system directory will wine use the driver?
