Problem

Symptoms: After the customer sends a print job, it takes several minutes before it begins printing. The customer is running WP under OS/2. The port is set to LPT1 (no colon). After the customer sends three or four print jobs, the printer finally begins to print with a long delay between jobs. Solutions: The customer changed the port in WP to LPT1.OS2. Then the customer went into the OS/2 Workplace to the Printer Object, opened Settings and selected the IBM_NULL printer driver. This solved the problem.
