Still trying to recall: it might be as simple as wsXXX not listed in /etc/hosts on the SERVER If this is done then use tethereal, but the delay is NOT on the ws ie data to port 9100 to printer is instant, delay is on the server spooler while it fiddles with network addresses James ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
