I encounter is a VERY slow printing on any network printer attached by a PC with Win98.
After I select the printer, my PC seems to freeze, but if I wait long enough will select that printer and finally will print but unacceptably SLOW.
I have searched the newsgroups at MS, everybody is complaining but until now I did not find any solution... HELP !!!!

Printer Type / Model?
What kinda network?
Why is the printer on a Win98 box?
Is that the highest OS version there on the network?

A lil info like those would help to give you a better answer.

Some HP printers WILL NOT work over a network.

Make sure you have the most recent drivers.

Clear the temp files on the 98 box and reboot. You would be suprised how many time this will "fix" a windows box.

Does printing go into the background?
What priority?
