so does "every week" mean once a week ? for that 10 mins you surely dont
need to run the daemon for 7 days ... (even if you in summary spend 1h
printing per week i would doubt it is worth running the daemon all the
time)

i think it taking 30sec longer before it starts printing because the
daemon startup takes that long is an acceptable thing unless the machine
we talk about is a print server in an office where it should constantly
run.
