I am having some problems with my printer and I was wondering if anyone had seen this before. I am using an old HP DeskJet 1200C/PS. I have it setup with CUPS and I can print without any problems. But, when I try to print anything with graphics in it the job takes a long time to complete. For example, when printing a 1.2mb jpeg file it takes almost two hours to print. Text prints without a problem and small graphics don't slow it down too much. Do I need to change some settings or is this printer just really slow? Kurt
