Off topic due to age of FC2?

Anyway, have installed an HP DeskJet 870Cse, and it prints
unbearably slowly, like 30 minutes per page.

Oh frabjous day! Calloo! Callay!

Success at last! Using GNOME I edited the printer driver options
to "Prerender Postscript" enabled, and I have now printed a 26
page document (which includes the "test page" I've been printing)
start to finish, including queueing time and one paper jam I had
to clear in just under six minutes. That's just about four pages a
minute. Just the one "test page" was taking over twenty minutes.
That's more than 80x speedup.

So, one misconception I had was that this is not a postscript
capable printer. Apparently it is. But the postcript interpreting
engine is S-L-O-W.

Pre-rendering was the trick.

Thanks all for your time and help.

Where should we make note of this, if at all?

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
