We've done some poking around and have found several references to HP drivers having issues. We are following up on those suggested fixes. Right now, the implementation is on hold until we can figure this out.

>I haven't heard anything specific about VFP. It could be that the 64-bit printer driver uses more CPU than the 32-bit driver, or is buggy. A few things to try:
>
>- Does it happen with all printer drivers?
>- Does printing from other 32-bit apps peg the CPU?
>- Try downloading the latest 64-bit driver.

>>The hotfix you refer to does not specifically address printing issues - what things do you suggest tweaking on the OS? Anyone have any insight about printing issues with 64bit W08 and vfp9?

>>>Also you need to tweak things a bit of 64bit O/S, especially if running 32bit Java.

We are testing and noticing the cpu is pegging when printing. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the OS and can provide words of wisdom.
