I share a color inkjet (Canon i560) over Samba, and my printer driver is
CUPS. Lately (say, in the last couple weeks) it's gotten very slow. I'm
watching the network graph in GKrellm, and it reads & writes simultaneously,
then does nothing for a second, lather, rinse, repeat. This really kills
performance, pushing the per-page time over a couple minutes (if ever).
For 802.11b clients, it might take hours, and still not print. What should
I look at? A print server is on order, to take these problems away, but in
the mean time, I'd like to be able to fix it.
