Is there a solution for this, that a noob like me can install? Earl :oops: Ok, so I'll answer my own question: I...

Does printing to CUPS-PDF work in Notepad? No reply? That could have been useful information. Sorry for the delay, life happens... I have been able to print via notebook. I'm not a wine expert either, but rather than work in Windows to use Sketchup, I resorted to Wine. It is a great program and eas...

Sorry about that, that's the short fall of the free version, besides having to use WINE to run it...

I'm looking for a skp to pdf convert as I like to publish everything in pdf.

I even tried CUPS-PDF but I can't find the darn file? When you print to CUPS-PDF, you should get a dialog box where you select the destination. Usually, it's in /root. Can you export a drawing in some Linux-compatible format, like PDF? I am not getting the dialog - I am tring to print out of Wine s...

When I try to print from Sketchup, the output is "black"

Using notepad - all is fine

Printing from Puppy is great

I even tried CUPS-PDF but I can't find the darn file?

The Puppy Linux 5.7.1 with Wine 1.3.13 combo is working fine for me...

I am testing Sketchup 8 successfully.

I have loaded .net 2.0 and Cadre Geo with poorer results working on that now. lots of exception text - don't know what that is yet!

Good Luck

Wine 1.7.2 for Slacko, PET & SFS files. It worked fine for me but it would be nice if you could also test it, just to be sure... :) https://copy.com/3XP3nI1BsRcE I tried your .pet and SFS - trying to get Cadra to work on the SFS no luck yet... Internet explorer works , sort of... It does nothin...

Will try that version next - I just started 1.6 and it looks like it is going out to fetch MONO etc... I am not using the slacko version right now so I expect we will have different results, but I will continue to share results in case I have to convert to slacko. Just noticed that it is now loading...

I am using Puppy Linux Precise 5.7.1 and am looking for guidance in which Wine to use? I would prefer a SFS or pet file as I am not to swift at compiling source yet! I have had problems loading Gecko - it indicates Wine needs it but does not seem to install. I manually put the wine_gecko-1.1.0-x86_6...

Just got back from a select board meeting and I tried the ".pet" package for the Konica Minolta BizBus 250 printer. And it works. We had to do a site visit in 6 degree weather other wise I would have stuck around and tried to figured out why I again could not do this on my own. I some time...

Under what port number?

80 and 9100 - could not make it to office today and I have all day logging training tomorrow so I'll have to try on Sunday or Monday...

I will post while there!

@rcrsn51, Thanks for the '.pet', I'll give it a try on Thursday. This printer is located in the town office - and I'm trying to not boot into Windows when I'm there... I had found a ppd package on the Internet, but it did not work, I'll retry and log the error message here. CUPS did find the printer...

I am trying to print to a Konica Minolta bizbus 250 but Minolta does not seem to support Linux(Unix) like Brother does. I have the IP address but that seems to be all. The Windows disc's are available.

Anyone tryed to interface to this family?

.NET Framework? or Mono?
If ".NET Framework" it is a very easy.

.NET Framework, easy is good...

Not sure what Mono is but the Cadre manual calls for .NET Frameworks.

So howto???

Has anyone had success using wine to run Cadre Geo 6? I have installed Wine-1.3.13-Lucid52.pet into 5.7.1, I know it is running and works because I can use Irfanview...

@rcrsn51 Well, you have solved my senior moments yet one more time... No excuse for the "ip=" but the "-" in the model number would never have been caught by me!!! Needless to say it now works. Xsane does not have a "wireless" tab (but you know that), however this does ...
