Delay between printing via lp in opensuse
- by adamweeks
I am experiencing a 10-15 second delay when printing multiple documents to a barcode printer in opensuse. I have had the same setup on other systems with older versions of opensuse without any issue. The setup is as follows:
The print queue is setup as a "generic with driver Raw Queue".
The files being sent down to the printers are simple text files with the lp command:
lp -dprinter1 /path/file
The printer is a JetDirect compatible device (Intermec brand) with a standard 9100 port socket setup.
If I send a multi-page document to the printer, it will print nonstop the multiple pages. If I send 2 or more text files down via separate "lp" commands, the delay will be there between each printout.
I've tried multiple different printers and they all experience the same issue.
