I looked at this issue about 3 months ago and went back to win4lin. Wine was bad with fonts (this is apparently resolvable), the printing was bad (I sort of got it sometimes working as .ps output - don't even think about getting it to work with specially designed invoices etc) and it was all just taking up too much time to get the required result.
Go win4lin, it works well. Better yet try sqlledger or gnucash or something.
