This article discusses a Beta test product that is not yet announced or released publicly by Microsoft. Please feel free to familiarize yourself with this product, test it, and report problems to Microsoft.





SYMPTOMS
Outlook appears to stop responding (hangs), and then start when you move the mouse cursor over the Print button on the toolbar.



CAUSE
Outlook has paused to read information from the registry for the default printer so it can report information about the printer in the ToolTip text.



RESOLUTION
A permanent resolution for this behavior is to disable ToolTips for buttons. To do this:
 * 1) On the View menu, point to Toolbars, and then click Customize.
 * 2) On the Options tab, click to clear the Show ScreenTips on Toolbars check box.
 * 3) Click Close.

By turning off ToolTips, Outlook will not appear to hang or slow down when you hold the mouse over the Printer icon on the toolbar.
