Samba printer slow

Problem:
It’s extreme slow to connect to the Samba printer on Linux from Windows XP with SP2.

The solution see http://groups.google.com/group/linux.samba/browse_thread/thread/c373f517ad8b1351/f52b374e11548a70?lnk=st&q=samba+linux+printer+slow+driver&rnum=3&hl=en#f52b374e11548a70

Using regedit, under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\Connections\

subkeys “DevModePerUser” and deleted all keys for this printer. And entry in “DevModes2” and “Settings”, delete these also.

Oil joke

世界上最著名的投资者之一,沃伦·巴菲特在其掌管的贝克夏·哈斯维公司1985年的年报中讲过这样一个故事:一个石油勘探者,正在向他的天堂走去,但圣·彼得对他说:“你有资格住进来,但为石油职员保留的大院已经满员了。”这位勘探者想了一会儿后,对着大院里的居住者大声喊道:“在地狱里发现石油了!”大院的门很快就打开了,里面的石油职员蜂拥而出。圣·彼得非常惊讶,于是请这位勘探者进入大院。勘探者迟疑了一下说:“不,我认为我应跟着那些人,这个谣言中可能会有一些真实的东西。”

“I’m funky like a monkey and as cool as a cat, talk more than a parrot, up all night like a bat,” it went.

“I got a laugh like a hyena but get the hump like a camel, so cover me in fig leaves as I’m the ultimate mammal.”
