You didn't read my post carefully.  The printer is connected to the same
Linux machine in all cases.  The Windows machine prints to this printer
via a samba share.

Anyway, as I posted in another message, the problem is now solved.
I switched to using a different PPD file and it now prints as fast
on Linux as it does from Windows.
