Slow printing in OSX

2003-10-09 by Mark Savoia

I am getting a slowdown in printing when sending a large file to my
Epson 10K. It starts out fast (in high speed mode) and then starts to
slow down to a crawl. It prints but much slower then it ever did in
OS9. I have tried connections via USB and network and get the same
results. I am pretty sure that it is a data transfer rate problem but
have been told that there is no way to manage what disk it spools to,
like it could in OS9. If I print a small file it prints very fast.

Mac G5, OS 10.2.7

Thanks for any ideas,
