And I still worried because I have to keep lenny... :-P

Did you run an in-place update or did you install squeeze from scratch?

Okay, as a first round I would try to debug if the origin of the slowness 
is related to the network connection.

Is printing pain slow when printing from the local host (the computer 
that is connected to the printer) or you note some difference in the 
processing speed when sending the job locally?

And just in case, if the printer supports it, I would test with a PCL6 
driver, it would be interesting to see the results to compare.

Also, the more information you provide for the printer (brand name, 
model, connection type, ppd file in use...), the better.
