Default Word 2002 slow printing multiple copies

Hi David

David Gibbons wrote:
All my single-page Word 2002 documents are slow to print multiple copies
with my Dell 1100 laser printer. The files are 50K-300K long. I am running
Windows XP, have 50GB hard disk space free and have 512MB RAM. Other files
(eg EXCEL or JPEG up to 1.5 MB) are fine.
Can I change anything? Any help would be appreciated


Are you printing your copies sorted (i.e.: p1, p2, ..., pn, p1, p2, ...)
or not (i.e.: p1, p1, ..., p1, p2, p2, ...)?

I understand that you gain speed with printing copies only in the latter
part (for the cost of having to sort the output manually, of course
:-)). Well, that applies as long as the printer is unable to hold all
pages of the printjob in memory, I presume.
