I have set up a print server running FreeBSD 2.1.7. The hardware seems to be set up correctly. When I "type" a file to lpt1: in DOS the printer prints it immediatly. When I cat a file to /dev/lpt0 in FreeBSD it prints a line, waits a second or two, prints a line, waits a second or two, and so on until the file has printed. Using the print spooler gets the same results. I checked the man pages, FAQ, Complete FreeBSD, no hits. The mailing list archive had one hit, but the message was not available. Any help, including pointers to other areas of info, is greatly appreciated.
