Default Poor performance in printing on network printer, PrintDocument - 08-26-2005 , 01:59 PM






I experiment really poor performance when printing to a network printer.
Startup takes from 3-5 seconds, each page takes 1 second to process.

When the selected printer is locally installed it's fast (just a startup
time of 2-4 seconds, the pages are processed about 20 per second).

The program is ported from Win32 API, using Win32 API on same network
printer it's lighting fast, anyway I tested other printer drivers and
physical printers with same result. Same information is print.

The document contains only texts.

Is there a way to obtain good performance?, lot of printers are installed on
servers, I think, for each page, the PrintDocument class is asking the
remote printer (the driver) some heavy information...

Thanks
