SYMPTOMS
If you are running Windows NT 4.0, and if you print a document containing table borders from Word 7.0 or Word 97 to an HP Color LaserJet 5/5M PostSscript printer using version 9.x of the printer driver, your document may take a very long time to print.



CAUSE
The NT 4.0 printer driver for the HP Color LaserJet prints table borders, especially dotted lines, very slowly.



WORKAROUND
If possible, use a different printer driver.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the products listed above. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.



MORE INFORMATION
This problem does not occur with Windows 95
