Office 2010: Slow printing

[fi5hbone]

Hi there,

I'm running Office 2010 after upgrading from 2003 and suddenly the printing takes forever, documents sent from Office 2010 takes ages before it starts printing.

PDF documents however had no issues and is still as fast.

Tried the following but to no avail:
- adjust settings to print directly to printer
- disable background print in Office 2010

Anyone has any thoughts? I've got a feeling it's a spooling issue but the print directly to printer should solve that but it didn't.

Hi fi5hbone,

We advise you to check to the printer manufacturer's web site for an updated printer driver for Office 2010.

Hope we help.
