Printing under Wine - Mission Impossible?

Some more information about my printing problems.
I completely removed LPRgn and CUPS from my laptop. I
then reinstalled basic CUPS none of the cups-drivers
rpms.
I then configured my CUPS setup and got Linux apps
printing (open office etc...)
I then edited my win.ini in my winroot/c/windows and
removed all the printers from there.
I opened up Lotus Notes in wine and tried to print. I
was able to get a print out, before it crashed my
printer, but the fonts were all mangled. So I renamed
my wineroot/c/windows/Fonts directory to something
else and reloaded Notes. I no had no anti-aliased
fonts in Wine. But when I printed I got a nice clean
printout that I expected. I renamed the Fonts
directory back and got my antialiased fonts back, but
the print out was corrupted.
So I have a choice I guess nice screen fonts or nice
print fonts but not both... argh!
Config:
RedHat 8.0
Wine CVS
Cups 1.1.15
Printer is an HP DeskJet 1220C using the Cups deskjet
driver point to the printer on an LPD served print
server.
I'll try with a postscript drivers.
