Linux printing service delays printing jobs

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • One of the printing servers frequently delays printing jobs (12 seconds). We enabled debugging, and found that every time he printer server delays printing, there is a process in the printer server to write file to cache.
  • Slowness in printing possibly due to CUPS performance.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7
  • Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.6.3
