Hi Ron HP appear to have majorly revamped at least a few of their printer drivers. Had issues with large text only print jobs on an HPLJ 4100 queue, swapped to the latest PCL6 HP driver (late July release) and cut the print job size down to 25% of the old (older driver) size. Makes me wonder about the code base for the UPD driver and whether there's room for improvement. Probably.

Bring up 1 page of text and print it using the UPD (notice the job size) then do the same thing with a 4000 driver and check the size difference I have been seeing some pretty big spool files out of these UPDs Ron Oglesby Senior Technical Architect RapidApp Office 312.372.7188 Mobile 815.325.7618 email roglesby@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: Adam.Baum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Adam.Baum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 12, 2003 2:00 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Printing performance H iAll, One of my remote users is experiencing very slow printing. The printer is locally attached to her pc. I switched to the universal driver about the same time that this started occurring. Is there a way to imporve UPD performance? Her printer is an HP4000. I could always load it onto the server, but I prefer to use UPD when possible. adam ******************************************************** This Week's Sponsor: ThinPrint http://www.thinprint.com ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thethin.net/links.cfm For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm ******************************************************** This Week's Sponsor: ThinPrint http://www.thinprint.com ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thethin.net/links.cfm For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this e-mail is confidential and may be subject to legal professional privilege.
