Hello: This is on openSUSE 11.2. Because of system service some of our LAN's services was off for a while today. This means that kinternet icon showed a connected network and network traffic, but the nameserver part indicated a "waiting for reply' status. DHCP test timed out: # dhcpcd --test eth0 err, eth0: timed out Under these conditions I noticed that access of printers became very slow. For example in adobe reader it took 60-80 second to just show up the print dialog. Opening print properties dialog in it also took ~40 seconds, while sending a page to the printer took 40-70 secs. I measured similar delays in KPDF/kprinter. After turning off the network (hang up net connection in kinternet) accessing the printers was normal, showingprint dialog immediately, sending pages to the printer 1 sec. Connecting to the network again - printer access delayed again. Is this normal behavior? Well better to ask if this is known? I guess it might be related to cups server. But it definitely should not be such delays when printing independently of network status.
