Re: USB on an IBM Thinkpad i1300> When I had my Epson Phoot 870, I found it a lot faster on the USB interface
How much faster is it? I'll probably just be using the printer for printing reports and things like that, at least to begin with. I'm sure if I ever want to print out PDF files I'll need USB. My main problem right now though is just getting USB working. But thanks for the great printer suggestions. Talk to you soon :) __________________ My experience is - quite a bit faster for the average document (text, html, simple graphics etc). With parallel, the printer sometimes is too fast, and the buffer doesn't get filled fast enough. The printer physically stops as it waits for more data. USB doesn't seem to suffer this fate HOWEVER: When printing the old 2880 dpi full colour photos it doesn't seem to matter too much for me. The printer is so slow rendering the paper that the buffer always seems full, regardless of whether I use USB or parallel. As I'm sure you've seen though - the result is always well worth the wait in any case.
