Not for me. Under polling, many long waits during printing. If I set an IRQ with tunelp, nothing comes out.
New info: under both 2.0.34 and 2.0.35, setting an IRQ just slowed or totally hung printing.
rsimpson@ewrcsdra.demon.co.uk also reported similar problems with an Epson 800 in comp.os.linux.misc. (He also has an HP Laserjet 4 which is fine under both 34 and 35.)
Still the only thing that works for me is 2.0.34 lp.c under polling. (Haven't tried any earlier kernels.)
Printer: Epson 800. GS 5.10
