I have a Business InkJet 2200 attached to a win98 machine. Printing from 
Linux to it via a samba share is acceptable, very good quality, 
reasonable speed, just a bit slower than when printing directly from 
windows. Printing from the kid's iMac thru netatalk then thru samba, the 
quality is the same, but very slow. Overall, I am pleased with it, but I 
am considering getting the real postscript card & seeing if that makes a 
difference.

[newbie] Unusably slow printing in 8.0 using 'official' HP DeskJet drivers?

[Michael Carr]

I was wondering whether anyone using 8.0 is experiencing prohibitively slow
print-outs with the bundled HP DeskJet drivers.

I'm currently running 7.2, and while eager to upgrade I've heard horror
stories about the downloadable version's use in conjunction with other
distros.

Thanks in advance,

Michael
