Sincee these are netwotk priinters it seems the problem is probablhy
associated with network connectivity. Can you telnet to the printer at
port 631? I assume yoouu set up the printing on the teo printers
separately or is a print server involved. Trting too delete the pprinter
froom the F13 machine and reconfiguuring it would be worth tryiing. Is
other printiing from the F13 machine proceeding nnormally or is it also
slow?
