Hi Jon, First thank you for your reply (same thank to Lowell Gilbert).
I tried to change the mode with lptcontrol -p -d /dev/lpt0 but that is even worth because I have no more output at all! I am a bit lost between all the confguration files now. CUPS, apsfilter and friends is too much in one day :) Can you tell me where to install an especially downloaded ppd file? Now my printer's led is flashing permanently, but nothing else happenned. I never thank that printing would be that much exciting and full of suspense :) ------------------------------------------------ Hello Ivan: On 1/16/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> So at that point: >> - I can print >> - I can go to sleep for a whole week before getting one chapter from the >> handbook printed. I have the same problem using foomatic-rip and lpd, on NetBSD 3. I have not tried printing recently with CUPS. I did google on "Slow printing" site:linuxprinting.org and got hundreds of hits. We are not the only ones who have this problem. Of course there were no definite answers to this problem. One suggestion was to change the /dev/lpt* from interrupt to polling, using lptcontrol. This is man 4 lpt, for the manual page. I did look at my *ppd file and saw that my resolution was set at the highest level. I am still looking into this but I have no definite answer either. I am hesitant to tinker with the way /dev/lpt* queries it's requests. -- Kind regards, Jonathan _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
