Hi All,
i'm running Fedora Core 7 on an AMD Athlon 2400XP+, using an USB Canon IP4200 printer.
I've been using turboprint drivers for over a year without any problems.
I've recently upgraded to FC7 and suddenly, printing became very slow ( it just took 6 minutes to print the Turboprint test page.... )
I'm running cups version cups-1.2.12-1.fc7 and turboprint 1.96-2 ( same behaviour with 1.95.2 ) , I tried downgrading my kernel from 2.6.22.1 to 2.6.21.5 , same behaviour.
Here's my /etc/turboprint_cups.log for this job:

Any help would be greatly appreciated since by printer is now totally useless !!!!
Thanks in advance
Printing became VERY slow
Hi,
the slow printing is caused by the USB backend in FC7. An upgrade of CUPS to the current version helps:
