I tried to print off of MSWord 5.1 , WordPerfect 3x, Nisus Writer, and even SimpleText... all were just as slow. Yes, I have the latest drivers (checked with canon support). And this was black and white, normal text mode printing. In draft mode, I got about 4 pages per minute. Good, but draft. In normal mode, as I mentioned, each page was more than 3 minutes. I didnt even try fine text (what would that have been, 10 minutes??)
