My guess is you're printing at different resolutions from the two OSes or
somehow the settings are not identical.  I have an Epson color inkjet
printer and in higher resolutions the printer slows down dramatically.  I
get a higher-quality print, but the speed is almost so slow as to not be
worth the wait.  This change has nothing to do with operating systems when I
switch between Fedora Core 1 GNU/Linux and OpenBSD.  It has to do with the
settings with which I use the printer.

Once I lowered the resolution of the printer I found a better tradeoff of
speed and detail.

I suggest altering the settings in the printer setup panel for your printer
and see if that increases the speed of the printer.
