Ubuntu 9.10 Printing

Hello all

I have a HP 1200 (native postscript) printer.


When printing there is delay of at least 15 seconds even with a very
small (16K) text file.


When the printer runs out of paper, there is a delay of 20 or more
seconds after putting in paper before this  is recognised - why ?


If the job is just a single page of text, it insists on printing a
further blank page - why ?


The printer priority is set to urgent and no-delay.


It seems that the printer is only interrogated every 20 seconds or so.


Can anyone advise on how I can get a faster printing response.


Thanks for any help
