The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Scenes (all collections), version 1.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When printing to a shared printer using Windows for Workgroups version 3.1, the
print job seems to halt when Scenes for Windows is starting.

CAUSE
=====

Scenes for Windows version 1.0 requires most of the CPU time when the
screen-saver is starting up.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, change the printing priority of that print job to
High Priority in Print Manager in the Main group of Program Manager.

STATUS
======

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
