Speed is definitely one of the main aspects which creates a fuss between the technologists who develop
modern electronic devices. Unfortunately, certain upgrades are released so as to compensate for the bugs that the prior releases have. These bugs not only hinder the productivity and the efficiency of all concerned parties, but it also address issues pertaining to marketing and distribution schematics of the developers and manufacturers. With this, I would have to elaborate further and site one of the main problems some printers have on Windows XP platform.
There are problems on Windows XP registry which cause slow printing and spooling issues. With the release of Windows XP Service Pack 2, these issues were still not addressed in a rather substantial manner. Meaning to say, the slow printing solution needs to be done through certain hacks on Windows XP system registry. Well, what if the user doesn't have even an idea what the
system registry is? Thus, I provide below a guideline in which to solve this slow printing problem on Windows XP platform in a rather obtuse yet effective manner.
First, key in the regedit text in the Windows Run command. Within the registry editor, search for the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\DevModePerUser key. Then, delete all the entries which refer to values within the key \
. After doing so, locate the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\DevModes2 key, then delete all value entries in the key \. In doing this, you would have solved your slow printing problem with Windows XP platform.
