Some users with DOS computers on an AppleTalk network using the AppleTalk
card and running AppleShare PC have complained of slow printing to a
LaserWriter IINT. If you print to a LaserWriter set for Diablo emulation
across LocalTalk, keep the following facts in mind about Diablo emulation:
1) It is slow because the interpreter for Diablo code is written in
PostScript and must be translated to PostScript within the LaserWriter
before printing.
2) The printer may not receiving an end-of-file or Control-D from Microsoft
Word and is waiting for a time out before printing the page.
If the LaserWriter is set for Diablo emulation, try printing a
multiple-page document to the LaserWriter. If the last page takes as much
as three minutes to print, the LaserWriter is probably not receiving an
end-of-page command.
If the LaserWriter is set for PostScript, use the Microsoft Word APPLASER
driver (from the Microsoft Word printer driver disk).
