I have the same slow printing problem with a Dell 3115cn on 14.04 LTS Desktop 64-bit. A 180-pages printjob with some coloured screenshots (Samsung TV manual) needs 2-3 hours on Ubuntu but only 15 minutes on Windows7 (WSD). The same problem occurs when I convert the PDF to PS with "pdftops" and copy it into the printers ramdisk via FTP. pdftops bloats the 6 MByte PDF to 100 MByte (PS Level 2) or 200 MByte (PS Level 3).
So the problem is definitely the broken Postscript conversion and not CUPS/drivers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1095498 Title: Printing PDFs with images is hideously slow on HP LaserJet 3030 MFP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1095498/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
