Btw., the question about which printer also belongs here. I didn't look at nlpt yet, but i remember i once had to tweak lpt in order to print with decent speed on some HP DeskJet printers since the deskjets seem to have a very weird signal handling (they delay one of the signals, apparently to work around bugs in the SM-DOS printer driver). If nlpt doesn't have these tweaks so far (you can find them in the CVS diff), this could result in very slow printing (like one page per several minutes) even in interrupt mode. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
