Printing has slowed to a crawl...

I'm having a strange problem with my home network:

I have two Macs: a TiBook connected to the network by AirPort; the other is a PowerBook G3 Bonze Keyboard (SCSI-USB) connected via Ethernet.

My printer is an Epson Stylus 980 connected via Ethernet and AppleTalk.

Using the TiBook, everything works fine. So was the PowerBook G3 - initially. Now, whenever I print from OS X on the PowerBook G3, it takes around 5mns to print a single page of text. In Classic, it's as fast as before. The problem is only in X.

I've tried deleting Epson files (but I may have missed some), removing the printer from the Print Centre and getting it back again, I've run the latest version of Norton, I've done fsck. Nothing works.

Does anyone have any idea?

Thank you for any help you can provide.
 
I don't have a solution to your problem but I too have been having a hard time to get OSX to work well with my Epson C60. Only 1 in every 4 print jobs will actually be executed and only after I stop the que (upon receiving an error message) and restarting it.

My guess is that Epson hasn't updated their drivers to where they are flawlessly working with OSX yet.
