Network Printer

Hi - new to crossover so be gentle!

I have set up a program under crossover and it works pretty well. The program has a print menu and using this calls up a print dialog dialog box...

...but when I press OK nothing happens at the printer. My printer is a HP LaserJet 2605dn which is a network printer. It works fine from MAC native apps.
I have tried running notepad as a command in the bottle with the same results. I assume printing does work under Crossover? Is network printing also supported?

Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks
Dave

Sounds to me like you found a bug in Wine :) CrossOver really should not care about the printer as long as it's configured on your system (either local or networked) and working. Wine talks to CUPS, CUPS talks to printer or another instance of CUPS on the network.

File a support ticket and maybe link to this thread. If you're using the trial, then email to: info@codeweavers.com

Lol, had that problem with my OKI C530dn (LAN) for ages and was like damn no printer support...^^
Looking forward to that fix! :)

You should to the same thing I advised the other guy to do.
