If it affects all print jobs, it might be the port. You can configure it
to use an IRQ, which is faster:

/etc/modprobe.conf.local:

options parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7

Of course, you have to verify the settings in your bios previously.

If the port is the issue, then wouldn't it affect printouts from
the Windows machine equally?

No, it wouldn't, because windows could be using the irq: whether one system uses the irq, dma, or polling method to access the printer port is independent of what the other systems uses.

It's worth a try; it might not be your problem, but it will improve things a bit.


However, your problem sounds familiar, I think I read about a similar problem with an HP laerjet years ago in this list, but I don't remember what it was... and I might be imagining it.
