It seemed so. However, I'm now trying to print something again with
IEEE1284 enabled, and am getting time outs again - with data pending
in my printer's memory for too much time. Also, I stopped the
computing-intensive job for a moment, which doesn't seem to have
helped.
It almost seems like the problem occurs after the module has printed
a certain amount of data.
