I downgraded and of course had the speed back then, but now i upgraded to squeeze and the slowdown is as horrible as before. also, this seems to be a very common issue, there are lots of reports about people having printing issues because gs takes a long time now, for ps that was fast to print before. it seems upstream thinks that this is a ubuntu/debian issue, and some people have reported that downloading and building upstream results in a fast ghostscript. I guess after so much time i just have to live with the 30+ times slowdown, as I don't have the time to investigate at the moment, but the slowdown is universal, for everything (whether it be a printed image, gnuplot output etc.). -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-printing-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I tried printing from chromium and it worked okay, but it only supports printing by PDF. Do you perhaps have a postscript file exhibiting the problem? Ideally some ghostscript wizard can make sense of the error message, but barring that, the ability to reproduce it would be nice.

Package: gs-esp
Version: 7.07.1-9
Severity: important

kghostview:

I believe that this is the same ghostscript bug reported at Redhat to do with
null page sizes:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=126446
As gs-esp has priority on my system, this bug may also apply to the Debian
package gs-gpl.

Some printers don't support setting the page using numeric values but a small set of special purpose operators. The table look-up checks whether there is a predefined page size operatot to set this page size. When there is no such operator, "null" indicates that the page size should be set using numeric method. The patch makes Ghostscript ignore the page size of the document and use US Letter size for any non-standard document. This is clearly wrong. Probably, most users would prefer to fit non-standard pages to the paper size. However, for the printers with expensive media, a PostScript error is preferable. Do you agree with this analysis? Are you sure it is the same bug? Aside from that, I'd also be interested in whether the same problem appears with current ghostscript-x. (I am able to open PDFs with "gs -dSAFER" on version 9.00~dfsg-2, at least).
