How to speed up printing?

[RSunday]

I have succesfully reduced the size of my presentation - through otimizing
the slide master, reducing picture sizes etc. - and now the presentation is
down to 204 KB - as opposed to the original 9+ MB.

BUT - still it takes forever to print in color....

What are the tricks to print fast?

When I look at the print queue - the small 204 KB file swells up to 9 MB
when printed. How is that..? And what is there to do?

I seem to have the same problem with Word-files /swelling up at print time).

It's always a trade off between quality and speed with printing.

If you lower the resolution (dpi) when printing then things will print
quicker.
But the quality will be lower.

Where do I specify the dpi of my print job..?

Clearly printing to high-res is waste - so I want to find the limit, where
it is still acceptable.

And - why does a 500 KB file swell up to 5 MB in the queue?
