My mother is having a problem printing from her 386 to her HP LaserJet
III from WordPerfect 5.1 (well the latest WP; she's pretty sure it's
5.1).

Although documents print fine, they have to wait up to 45 seconds
after asking for the printout before anything will print.  These are
fairly simple, small documents (legal letters and notes, often only a
page).  The problem has gotten worse with time -- letters used to
print quickly, but now take time before printing.

Has this problem been noticed by anyone else?  Any thoughts as to what
the cause might be?

Supposedly there have been some problems with the WP print drivers (my
mom had to upgrade to the LaserJet III because she was told WP didn't
work well with the II she had).  Disk fragmentation was suggested by
someone; but for small documents, shouldn't they be entirely in
memory?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
