Hello all, My HP DeskJet 612C printer is printing unbearably slow (0.033 PPM). I have a stock installation (GENERIC KERNEL) of FreeBSD 5.3 straight off of the install CDs, and I have installed very little software thus far. I have mainly followed the installation instructions from http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~ranga/notes/freebsd_cups.html It basically prints one line at a time, then pauses for a while, and makes some noises, and then repeats. The whole single test page took over 30 minutes to print. Does anyone have any insight/info that they can give me to solve this problem or point me in the right direction of solving it? I have Googled and done some searching and did not come up with anything. I checked the CUPS documentation and forums and did not see anything either.
