Hi folks. I generate PDFs by printing VFP reports to an Acrobat 5 PDF driver. Users have complained that the PDF output from a particular report prints very slowly to a particular printer. They receive the PDF file from my web apps, then send it to their printer using "file print" on the Acrobat menu. It has gone from taking a few seconds, to taking a few minutes.

Some facts:
- printing to this HP1100 is very slow, but to other printers (example HP970 is fast)
- I haven't changed the report that the PDF is based on
- the PDF file is only 2 pages
- other PDF files generated from foxpro that are the same size and same font and same number of pages print quicklys
- the speed of printing this particular file degraded in the last two weeks from seconds to minutes
- PDF file is only 70K and in print queue, is about that same size

Any ideas how to fix?
