I have a Canon BJC-610 bubble jet printer. I have set my /etc/printcap t=
o a
standard line printer on /dev/lp --> lpt0.

When I "cat /etc/hosts|lpr" it prints just fine, but it prints about 5
lines/minute. It's REAL slow. I have a bidirectional cable hooked up bet=
ween
the printer and the Unix box. Could the printer be sending back data to =
the
Unix box and confusing Unix enough to slow down printing?
