[/quote]First, Wine cannot support Native Windows Drivers for any device. This is not permitted with the way that drivers function. Second, that version of Wine is VERY old. Is there a particular reason you are using it and can you update to the current development version of Wine? James McKenzie[/quote] It's the version that was conveniently available from my distro through their package manager, and I usually go with a package install on things I'm not too familiar with. I've only used Wine for two programs, a video game for my kid and a school typing program for him too. Both seem to perform nicely, so I was thinking it might help me get this printer running as well. I don't at all pretend to be an expert on how drivers work. Is Wine useful to me in getting this printer to work, or should I be thinking in a different direction? Thanks, Eathray
