Did you put a

$_printer_timeout = (1)

in your $HOME/.dosemurc?

Otherwise it is a problem of your printer spooler. With CUPS I have a little 
pause with printing the first time in the morning after starting CUPS and 
DOSemu. After that it always prints immediatly the whole day long (if there 
is enough paper ;-)).

Could it be that you configured your printer spooler starting with inetd. Then 
it will take a pause every time you start printing. Start your printer 
spooler as daemon.
