- I attached an HP ThinkJet printer to my 3b1's parallel port for the
- first time (never had a printer attached before). I used the mgr menus
- to assign the printer.
-
- One problem is that the printing takes forever. One line is printed
- and then 3 minutes later, another line is printed. I tried working on the
- problem last evening without success. The command ' cat foo > /dev/lp'
- just causes the working icon to stay on.
-
- Thanks.
