Hello. I had a similar problem with interrupt storms when I was setting 
up my printer. The fix for this involved me modifying /boot/device.hints 
. To see what I did and if it can help you or not, please read the 
entire thread entitled
Very slow printing with stock FreeBSD5.3 + CUPS + Gimp-Print + HPDeskJet612C

I hope this helps.
