Hello all! Perhaps anyone can tell me how to properly install TurboPrint with a Panasonic KX-P2123 connected. It takes approx. 11 (eleven!) minutes to print a 5.5K-Wordworth-File. The outprint is about two pages long, and has no pictures or drawings in it, just plain text. I know that Wordworth converts every document to a graphical object, which then is printed, but should it last for such a long time? I got 1MB Chip, 2MB 16-Bit-Fast, 4MB 32-Bit-Fast, A2630 (68030 & 68882), TurboPrint 3.0 and the above mentioned printer. Any help would be appreciated…. Rob

Five or six minutes per page of text would be about par for the course on a 68030, longer if there are graphics on the pages. An 040 would speed that up to about two minutes per page of text. Jeff Walker.

I didn't knew that it's a normal time, that's a pitty! Rob.

Have you tried the original Panasonic KXP 2123 driver available here on CIS? I wrote that driver for Panasonic and it's basicly the same driver as the PinDriver shiped with the Digita Print Manager. The only difference is, that the driver was specialy adopted to the KXP. — Wolf Faust, Am Dorfgarten 10, 60435 Frankfurt, Germany —

Hi Robert, I noticed in your messege you say you have Turboprint 3.0. I have 2.02 and I didn't know there was a newer release. Where did you get it and who is the distributor now if you happen to know? I would like to check on an upgrade. Thanks in advance! Terry Grider

Hi Terry, I just checked it – yes, it IS Turboprint 3.0! 🙂 I bought it at the "Hobbytronic" – a computer exhibition like the CeBIT – here in Germany, there was a special offer by a computer store I do not know the name now, sorry! Ask your local dealer, he/she should be able to contact IrseeSoft, the producer. Bye, Rob.
