| | Slow printing in Word 2003 Hi I have a problem printing from Word 2003 on a Vista PC. If I send a print job from Word 2003 to a networked HP Colour LJ3505n printer, it justs spools the job. If I minimise word and then maximise word it then prints. I can do this after 10 seconds and then it will print, or wait 2 minutes and do this and it will print!! Printing from Adobe, Outlook, Excel all print straight away, the problem is only printing from Word 2003. I have removed the printer and driver, reinstalled but no joy. Have tried this on another vista pc to the same networked printer, and this prints from Word 2003 straight away. Both PC's have the same versions of software, service packs, etc. Can anyone help? |
