subject: Printing from Windows

I have develloped a wierd printing problem when printing from a
Windows app.  
I use Warp (red spline= no windows) with Windows 3.1 running under it
for Windows apps.  Recently, when I print from a Windows application,
the windows software does what it needs to do, but the data does not
get to the printer (that is the feed light does not go on) UNTIL I exit
from the windows app and get back to the OS/2 desktop.  Then the
printer feed light goes on immediately and the printer prints.
What is wierd is that this is a recent behavior that only started a
couple of months ago.  Prior to that printing from within Windows apps
worked just fine.
I have tried to solve the problem by ensuring trying with the Windows
"use print manager" both activated and not activated with no
difference.  It is getting really annoying.  Anyone have suggestions?
Thanks.
