PSC 1350 prints TOO SLOW

Hello hpoj-devel mailinglist!!!

Here is Manuel, writing from Germany.
3 days ago, i bought the PSC 1350 all in one device. I am really happy
with that, because it needs only 30 minutes to set it up under linux.
Scanning works really fine, i could also print, but its sooooooo slow.
It needs about 3 minutes to print the cups test page.
My girlfriend has got a laptop with win XP SP2, and the difference is
unbelievable. On Win XP the printer is sooo fast. But who needs win
XP ;)

I use Gentoo Linux with the 2.6.10-r6 kernel.
I made the installation as shown on this gentoo wiki:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_hpoj_/_CUPS
# emerge hpijs ghostscript
# emerge sane-backends
# emerge sane-frontends
# emerge hpoj
# /etc/init.d/hpoj start
# rc-update add hpoj default
# emerge cups
# rc-update add cupsd default
# /etc/init.d/cupsd start
# emerge xsane

Is ist possible that i need the HPLIP package? I searched portage, but
there is no package available. I tried to compile from source, but got
errors. I thought the hpoj driver is enough for me?

Is ist necessary that i install HPLIP or can i choose one of the Deskjet
drivers in cups to make my PSC 1350 print faster???


Through google, i found this thread:

Best wishes from germany and i am sorry for my bad english ;)
