Thanks, Al.

Yes, I did the search on both without success. I found some articles on the Novell KB around slow printing with NDPS but none related to particular apps, and the fixes didn't solved anything.

Nothing in MS's KB on NDPS, neither. I could try printing to a disk, but I don't know how to feed the file to the Queue after that, and it seems quite complex to handle the case. Luckily, I never used direct REPORT FORM commands, but a custom function that gets the parameters and then issue the command, so I have a hook to make global changes in all printing operations, but I should determine first whether the printer is on NDPS or not, and this is quircky, too.

I would check if theres is an Antivirus, but I'm pretty sure there's not.

Thanks a lot!
