Hi,

compared with PAR: (AmigaOS), /dev/par0 seems to be _very_
slow. At least the printer connected to the parallel port
prints the _same_ file much faster with COPY file PAR:
than with cp file /dev/par0 (on -current NetBSD/amiga).

Is there something I should configure before accessing
/dev/par0?
