That's what I get. And as far as I understood, they relate this behavior to
a missing or buggy printer-driver (in Windows). Everything else is just
speculation, based on the "unable to open the file"-error they mention in
this article. I thought that, if prism has problems with some printers in
its native OS, than it might have the more in an emulated environment. So I
thought that prism don't accept the build-in printer driver of wine,
although it's working.
So there might be a way (some configs?) to tell prism that there is a proper
printer driver, but I couldn't find it. I don't even know where to look .. 

Wine tells me in the terminal:

$ wine "C:\Program Files\GraphPad\Prism 4\prism.exe"
fixme:richedit:RichEditANSIWndProc EM_SETCHARFORMAT: word selection not

err:ole:CoReleaseMarshalData IMarshal::ReleaseMarshalData failed with error
0x8001011d

the richedit stuff appears when I  try to open a new sheet and the ole stuff
comes when I close prism.
Is this related to my problem here?

thanks
