Hi Guys,
we have some problems with slow network printing after installing SP2 on all
our desktop-systems. The problems show up in any application and even if
you open print properties with no application open. It takes 7 up to 20
seconds to get a dialoge box from the printer.
I found out that this isnt a problem for all kind of printers in SP2. We
have some old HP printer which havent any problems at all, but the moast
printers we use are from Kyocera and they all have the same problems. I found
out that the main reason for the slowness has to be some DevMode settings
in the HKey_CU\Printers\Connection\"Printername". If i deleate the DevMode
the printer will response quickly. The problem is if i click printer
properties\printing preferences the DevMode entry is back and the printer is
slow again. No matter if i changed something in the preferences or not. I
also found out that if i localy map the network printer to a LPT Port and use
the exact driver there will be no problems, but localy map ~30 Printers isn
realy a option to me.
