SUMMARY
=======

After you start Windows 95, the first document you print may take noticeably
longer than subsequent documents.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The first time you print a document in a Windows 95 session, the print spooler
must be started. Starting the print spooler can take several seconds, depending
on the system configuration and hardware. Subsequent print jobs are faster
because the print spooler has already been started.

Additional query words: slow delay
