subject: very slow print

I have a DX2/66 8mb ram, 1.2gb hdd (all 1 partition), and a HP5L laser
printer.  when I want to print from Word for Win v6 it seems to take a long 
time to print, first it spools the whole job to disk and then releases the 
print job.  It can take several minutes even for a single page with say a 
table as the main part of the page.  There is 200meg
of free disk, a 20mb swap file but it runs like a dog!.  If I run an 
accounting program from dos the printing is great.  The p/c is running 
win 4 workgroups and is in anetwork of 3 p/s.  The poor print problem
is the same whether I am networked or not (win /n).  Any help would be much 
appreciated.
