Delete your .wine. Rerun winecfg. Compress the resulting messages with
bzip2 and post it. I'll take a look and see if I can figure out what you
are missing.

This group doesn't allow me to post binary data, so I would have to post the
uncomressed log.
Is that OK for you?

Okay, I got the log, and thought I would post the problem here, since it might be of general interest. It turns out that these messages:

wine: creating configuration directory '/home/rudolph/.wine'...
To use WINEPS you need to install some AFM files.
fixme:winspool:AddPrinterW DocumentPropertiesW on printer 'L"i560"' fails
To use WINEPS you need to install some AFM files.

come about because the PPD file you are using does not have any entries (usually at the end of the file) like these:
*DefaultFont: Courier
*Font AvantGarde-Book: Standard "(001.006S)" Standard ROM
*Font AvantGarde-BookOblique: Standard "(001.006S)" Standard ROM
... (lots more)

I can trigger all your symptoms (including not be able to print from Wine apps) and trace file by deleting that section from my PPD.

I suspect that Wine should behave correctly without those entries; I don't think they are a required part of PPD files, but I could be wrong there.

In the meantime, try just copying the entries from the Wine supplied generic.ppd file into the i560.ppd file that is presumably in /etc/cups/ppd or somewhere similar. That might make things work for you. Delete the ~/.wine and let winecfg recreate it; Wine won't detect that the PPD file has changed.

Also, where did you get the PPD file that you are using with the i560?
