I have recently acquired a HP IIP laser printer.  I have been very happy 
with it, except for it's speed at printing graphics.  I have been using 
it in it's native PCL language; which I had hoped would give decent 
graphics performance.  It has however been very slow.

I have heard from one source that adding more memory will help to speed 
it up.  This doesn't make any intuitive sense to me.  Has anyone else 
noticed this?  What can I do to speed things up?

My hardware configuration consists of a 386SX running ESIX SysV with a 
parallel port connection to an HP IIP.

Thanks in advance of your help,

    Rick Moll
