PDF printing in Lucud is too slow. 15 page document stays in printing
queue too long, pages are being printed with huge pauses. Probably it is
gs process, which does some processing.

It's hard to tell what you mean by 'too sow'.
How long does it take ? is the document color or black and white ? Graphics or
text ? At what resolution (dpi) ? What is your hardware spec. ?

Arne Brix, do you have all updates applied to Jaunty, so that the fix of
the problem you cite is present on your system? If not, please update
now. Or did you update and this turned formerly fast photo printing to
be too slow now?

Hello Till,
thank you for your lightning fast reply :-)
The Printer is a kyocera FS-C5100DN and used the ppd for linux

Same here in Jaunty using Okular, printing to a Fedora-hosted CUPS server which
has a USB printer.
Try to print the attached grinds for ~30minutes, with 'gs' at the top of 'top'.
The CUPS printers page for the local machine (not the server) i.e.
http://localhost:631/printers/ says TurboPrint:
If you are using turboprint, there is a new version, 2.10-1 that
addresses some specific issues with Jaunty. You may want to update your
turboprint driver. I have had no problems at all with turboprint and a
canon i960 after upgrading to Jaunty and the newest turboprint driver.

It's not a free upgrade from Turboprint 1.x to 2.x. I'll probably try
the non-turboprint driver for my Canon PIxma iP4200 first.

This one and a half minute figure is also something I'm experiencing in Hardy.
(and before in Gutsy as well)
You can multiply that time by the number of pictures you're putting on one
page, regardless of their size.
For example, if you print 8 photos on a single page, it takes 10 minutes.

Mattcasters, I tried opening a bug at ghostscript, but after a brief go
around with them, they decided it was just my system, so they closed it.
If you add your experience, maybe they can figure out what's going on.

I think it doesn't happen with upstream ghostscript. I seem to remember
installing a compiled-from-source ghostscript on a friend's machine
fixed the delay. I think the bug is in ubuntu's version. I haven't got
the time to test this at the moment (on work computers I cannot install
custom stuff).
Confirmed.
Testing conditions: Gwenview Printing Assistant, printing a 4 MP photo,
output 15x11,5 cm (~6x4 inches)
gs took between 1 minute and 1,5 minutes. I don't know really if this is
a long time but I guess it is.

Since upgrading to Hardy, the cups issue is resolved. I have all the
cups settings back to system defaults and there is no mention of it in
top during photo printing. Unfortunately, gs still spikes to 88+% and
4x6 photo prints sit in que for 85 seconds. The ghostscript bug is
still open.

in Hardy is it still same :(

After all the updates to cups and ghostscript, I wanted to try returning
the system to its original configuration and time it. So, undoing the
change to cupsd.conf and resetting all the drivers back the way they
were resulted in top showing 49% cpu for gs and 49% cpu for cups and

Installed several updates to ghostscript today to fix encrypted pdf

printing a 4x6 color photo still pauses for 65 seconds in print que with

This bug is still open and not resolved.

I forgot to mention, top still says gs is using 98-99% cpu while this is
happening.

I was printing some 8 1/2 x 11 color photos today and they sat in the
print que for 4 mins. 30 seconds before sending to the printer. This
really is not very usable for prints this large. I have not made any
changes to the system since changing the lpadmin command as noted above.
I still have it
same here ghostscript is slow as a dog, especially for .ps files
containing large bitmaps. The problem is definitely in gs, and not in
cups, since gv is also very slow and shows gs running on 99% cpu with ps

There were many updates to cups today. All installed without incident.
Printing, however still takes 65 seconds for a 4x6 color photoprint with
gs using 99% cpu as indicated in top.

So are there any other thoughts on why ghostscript (gs) is using 99% of
cpu resulting in slow photo printing?

Thank you for you quick response.
I undid the lpadmin command as you suggested and after tinkering with the
turboprint driver, finally got it to print again. However, the prints still
looked horrible. I then tested the printer with a windows machine and
discovered I had a hardware problem
I have tried the first 2 things you suggested above, I added the line
FileDevice yes without quotes to the end of the file. however, I cannot
modify my print queue as you suggest. I cannot open the file to edit
it. There is a red - icon next to it and it says no known file type if
I try to open
Please do the following test:
- Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf adding a line FileDevice yes
- Restart CUPS with sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
- Modify your print queue with lpadmin -p name of your print queue -E -v
file:/dev/usblp0
Try to print again. Is it faster now?

To edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf do
sudo gedit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
In the editor window coming up then add the line
FileDevice yes
to the end of the file. Restart CUPS with the command
sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
then.
For modifying the print queue execute the command
lpstat -v
at first.
OK, thank you for the explicit instructions. I did this for the 4 instances of
the i960 printer that I have defined on my system. (one for each paper size and
photo paper vs. plain paper)
