The printer is an HPLJ5.
It's not the printing that is slow. It's the generation of the
postscript to send to the spooler. The postscript file is ~22MB in size
and takes minutes to generate, evolution being totally unresponsive the
whole time, not even redrawing its windows. The same thing happens if I
print Generic Postscipt to a file. If I then run it through ps2ps it
gets distilled down to 18k!!! The postscript file evolution is
generating is over 1200 times the size it should be.
