We are having a problem with a Windows NT 4.0 server and Windows 98 work stations. We are also using Intel Pro printer boxes. When we were printing directly to the Intel Boxes, a big print job would slow down the entire system.

I reset the system so the NT Server queues all the jobs and THAT now controls the printing. System speed during printing improved for about 4 months.

Now the speed problem (on the system, not the print speed) seems to be is back.

1. Is there a way to set the queues to NOT start printing until the whole job is queued?
Would that help?

2. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
