SubjectParport_pc delay
Hi,

A while ago I introduced a delay to parport_pc as a temporary measure
because it seemed to be helping people who were having trouble with missed
characters at the beginning of a print job.

Please can everyone try this, and let me know of any changes in behaviour.
Don't bother telling me that parport_pc loads more quickly though.. ;-)

If you have have "missed characters" troubles before, +please+ try this
and tell me if the problem recurs!

Thanks,
Tim.
