But it depends on the CPU speed, the complexity of the page, the printer resolution, and whether you have a disk cache in RAM. Printing bitmap images is known to be very slow; 2-3 minutes for a page consisting largely of bitmaps is not out of line. If you would like to follow up on this, please e-mail to ghost@aladdin.com.
