Print lag

I have two printers shared in W98 machines and 8 WinXP workstations that
print in that. When try to select one of this printers in anyone
program, the WinXP take 1 or two minutes to free for the print, or can't
contact with the printers (in MS Office, for example, the user give the
message "The printer has not yet responded (...)".

This problem occours in any WinXP workstation. The Lan have a W2k3
Server with an AD configuration, but no Print Server (the mapping of
printers is manual).
