I have a system with Labview 6.0 on NT-4 that prints a 1 page report. This
is done by selecting Automatically print panel every time vi completes
execution. This vi takes about 30 seconds to complete, probably due to a
slow connection to the network printer. If the Automaticaly print panel
checkbox is not checked the vi runs in about a second so it seems that the
printing is the problem. Has anyone else seen this slow printing? Is there
any way to have labview spool to a file and then print the file or some
other way to speed up printing.
I am trying to avoid allowing the print routines to run in a different
thread because that would require extensive rewriting.
Thanks
