Hi!
Printer timeout seems much too short to me:
If something goes wrong (paper jam), I put printer offline with a
button, fix problem, put it back online and expect it to
work. However, this is not case with usb printer: one minute timeout
is much too short. Fix is to extend timeout to one hour (which should
be enough for user action).

PS: One minute definitely is NOT enough for user action on my star
lc-20 matrix printer: it prints slowly and any interference (font
change from front panel?) causes usb to fail.
