This has been reported in Bugzilla as 661814.
Fedora 14, up-to-date. foomatic-4.0.5-1.fc14.i686. Output to HP LaserJet 1300, with parallel to USB connector.
On Fedora 13, printing of a web page containing a JPEG file would take a minute or so from hitting print to page on the printer. On Fedora 14 (from first install) it takes 15-20 minutes. Printing a single .jpg with the lpr command yields similar results. Straight text prints immediately, whether directly or via a2ps.
As the list is not flooded with complaints, I'm guessing that its a configuration problem. Any suggestions as to what that might be?
Thanks.

Turns out that foomatic (?) changed the default driver for the HP LaserJet from Fedora 13. The installed default driver is pxlmono, the correct choice is Postscript, which CUPS shows as the recommended driver.

It would be really useful if you could share the output of this command, run as root while your printer is connected and powered on:
lpinfo --include-schemes=usb -l -v
Thanks, Tim. */
