Slow printing in Word 2003

L

A client of mine has recently upgraded from Office 97 (!) to Office
2003, and they now find that printing has slowed down considerably. In
fact, it's roughly one tenth the speed that it was.

I've tried experiments, printing to other printer drivers, local
printers and such, but the problem persists. I've installed SP2, but
still no luck. I can print these documents on my little notebook system
at a rate of three per second, but on their thumping server, they
trickle out at one page every 3.5 seconds. It's very frustrating,
because they print a lot of letters every day.

It's definitely not the printer itself causing the slowdown, because
it's the actual spooling process that is causing the bottleneck.

The printer is a Kyocera FS-9100, but as I say, I don't believe that is
relevant to the problem.

Does anybody have any ideas? I'd be most grateful for any suggestions
at all.

TIA,
Luke
