(every program that tries to use it freezes up) I installed CutePDF and used the ps-printer-name variable to fix it. (setq ps-printer-name "CutePDF Writer") So now I'm using ps-print-buffer to print. | |

I think this has been a coincidence. I have not seen specifying a printer name as printer-name work on Windows.

How do you list the printers within cygwin? cscript.exe prnmngr.vds -l gives me an error about the ending .vds.
