Finally got my Apple Imagewriter II working with Windows.  It prints great
outside Windows, but inside, it is incredibly slow!  I get about a line
every 30-45 seconds (printing text).  Why is it printing so god-awful slow?!

Particulars:  AT 8MHz compatible, EGA, HIMEM and packet driver installed.
Clock and Screenpeace are loaded, but printing speed is not affected when
these are removed.

I get more satisfactory results by printing to a file, then using a binary
copy to the LPT: device outside of windows.  I wish I wouldn't have to do 
this, but I must if I want anything printed from a Windows app.
