Slow Printing: BJC-800 and Others

Support knowledgebase (ke_print-bjc800)

SuSE Linux: Versions since 6.3

Symptom:

You can print with the Ghostscript driver "bjc800" but only extremely slowly.

Cause:

A problem in the Ghostscript driver.

Solution:

Try a different Ghostscript driver.

If your printer uses 360 or 720 dpi resolution (e.g. BJC800), it should also work with the Ghostscript driver bjc600. However, this driver (bjc600) does not work in printers using 300 or 600 dpi resolution (e.g. BJC7000).
