Well, it is a dual AMD Athlon(TM) MP 2000+ cpu MHz : 1680.454 bogomips : 3363.10 So I rather doubt that that is the problem. Also it worked in the past (before HPLIP). In the more recent past, all output seemed to come out in the wrong orientation (Landscape and Portrait switched) but at reasonable speeds. This changed to the current problem when I updated to fedor f7. -- George > > USB I/O is faster because there is better kernel support for USB.
