Re: [SLE] cancel a print job: USB better than parallel port?

Is there a way to take back the control of the printer in that situation? Would using a USB connection bring any improvement? I think it could be the case because it is a much more modern connection and therefore the protocol might be more adequate (and robust) to today's usage.

USB sends data faster (so can print faster) and is easier if you're trying to get data from the printer (ink levels, etc.). But I suspect you have the driver set up wrongly. You'd need to post what printer and how it's set up. Hopefully someone with a similar printer will know the answer. -- JDL Non enim propter gloriam, diuicias aut honores pugnamus set propter libertatem solummodo quam Nemo bonus nisi simul cum vita amittit.
