Maybe because you have an old EpsonQPlus driver (<V4). The main
performance jump was made V3-->V4 and since V4 I use ESC-$ with
great success.

Both printer support ESC-$-n.  Only the way they execute the
command are different... Panasonic gets slow... Epson speeds up...

Hmm I don't have FTP.... but I hope to make it available soon on
ab20... (so far: you should find V4 on ab20, but remember to flush
the memory in case of problems...)
