DNJ. Most printers if they have not been used for a few days run a Head Clean before printing which is most likely the delay. This is just another way of the manufacturer dumping ink so you buy cartridges more oftern !!!

Donny,

This may have something to do with your printer's memory capacity. If the documents you hope to print have lots of graphics, the print job will be somewhat slow when using older printers with little memory capacity. Some of the newer, more expensive printers have considerably larger memories, thereby improving the time it takes for the print task to begin by a significant margin. If you are only printing text documents, and using standard fonts, the print job should go fairly fast.
