I have just given DMP201 a trial with our laser printer hoping that
it would speedup troughput.

Well, it spools print files very nicely and release the computer
as the files print.  However, the files are printed very slowly.  The
spooler takes an awful lot of 'time out'.  The net result is that
printing is actually very much slower!

System

Laser 8286 clone running at 19200 bps through serial port
XON/XOFF to a Laserjet II. Dumping EROFF print files.

DMP201 would be useful if it worked faster.


Any suggestions to cure this problem before I erase DMP201?
