printing slow
I've just purchased a powerful new computer. I've tried a number of times to
print a word doc and it is painfully slow. From the time I click 'print' several minutes delay, to selecting 'current page' another minute or so passes and then it is printed. Pre Service Pack 2 I never had this problem. Any suggestions? |

Hi Rick-
The 'power' of the computer really doesn't have much to do with print speed. Is it possible that the new unit uses a different version of the OS? If so, have you checked for an updated printer driver? Drivers also get corrupted, so it may not hurt to reinstall a fresh copy of the same driver even if a newer one isn't available. Is the printer directly connected to your system or is it on a network? If a network the problem may be on that end. If local, how are the connections & cables? Other factors can come in to play as well. Good Luck |:) "Rick" wrote: I've just purchased a powerful new computer. I've tried a number of times to print a word doc and it is painfully slow.
