Re: [Bug 74736] Re: wine setup.exe for epson printer driver fails
Thanks for looking at the bug. Where it stands is ubuntu can print to the Epson Stylus Photo 820, but cannot clean the heads or change the print cartridge. Ergo by necessity I have to keep Windows dual boot. The required Epson utility appears on the bottom Windows toolbar row, runs readily from Windows but will not run from Wine. I'd like to switch to 100% ubuntu however here's a case where ubunto won't do the job.

Thanks for looking at the problem. Ubuntu can print to the Epson Stylus Photo 820, but cannot clean the heads or change the print cartridge, both of which are necessary. Therefore I have to keep Windows dual boot for the requisite utility. I'd like to switch to 100% ubuntu linux however here's a case where I cannot. Wine can run the utility however it seems to expect a parameter from Windows that it doesn't get. Thanks again for looking at this.
