[comp.sys.mac.hardware] DeskJect Plus with a Mac??

I have a question that I was wondering if someone could answer.  The question
is that I am trying to hook up a DeskJet Plus to a Mac Plus using MacPrint
as the printer driver.  I am also using SuperLaserSpool 2.02 which is supposed
to be compatible with the DeskJet Plus according to SLS people.  The problem
is that whenever I try to print anything to the DeskJet Plus, it starts to 
print very, very slow.  I know that when using a Spooler, printing will be
slow, but this is so slow, it takes between 7-10 minutes to print out a
FileMaker form that only takes up half of the page.  When we print without
the spooler, we can get output of the same item in less than 4 minutes.
Is there any way that we can make it go faster?  (We only have one item in
the queue, and we left the keyboard and mouse alone)
	The printer and HD seem to be talking to eachother a lot because 
the lights are both madly working.

Can someone help me speed this thing up?

Please reply to:  ccm022@deneb.ucdavis.edu 
   and not to the person whom was nice enough to post this message for me.
