In Word 2000, I have created a template that is a table with fields. The size
of the document is 160 Kb. When printing, the size of the the document sent
to the printer becomes 11 Mb, extneding the printing time. How to resolve.

This is inevitable. The file sent to the printer is basically a bitmap. If
you let the printer use resident fonts you may reduce the size of the spool
file.
