New printer installed, sometimes won't print.

Hi, I've had TP installed for some months now, mainly working with an Epson R290. TP and the printer worked very well with the Epson software through Wine.
Today I had to replace it with an R230. After installation I set the new printer as default. Epson Photo Print (running through Wine) did not recognize the change of printer so I had to reboot.
After rebooting I tested printing again, with TP monitor open. Some jobs printed fine. Other jobs would not print at all. They would appear on the status monitor and look as if they were printed successfully, but the printer would not even attempt to feed the paper. And then the status would return to "Idle".

Hello gimmejimmy,

does printing via Wine not work or do you also have problems with printing from different Linux applications, like OpenOffice, GIMP, etc?
