Hi Gene,

Several years ago I needed a Windows emulator to run a pal programmer. 
I found that the application program would run fine with wine but it 
expected to load a custom hardware driver which Linux would not allow. 
I think you are going to run into the same problem with your printer.  I 
believe wine will work with serial and parallel ports if the application 
goes through Linux but a custom driver won't work.

There is a commercial version of wine called Crossover which is not 
unreasonably expensive.  I suggest you check with them on the state of 
application program drivers. www.codeweavers.com

Best regards,
Fred
