    Windows 10 laptop is very slow to print pdf


    I am running Windows 10, version 20H2 and am up-to-date on all Windows updates. When I print a one-page PDF it takes 4 minutes to print the document. Same 4 minute delay when I print a "copy" from a usb-attached Canon scanner. This seems to have started within the last week or so. The laptop is HP250, the printer is HP1102w. I can print a PDF from another HP laptop HP360 to the same printer and there is no delay. Everything but the scanner is connected wirelessly. I have re-installed the printer on

    :)

    Windows 10 and PDF printing

    I have an HP Laptop which uses Windows 10 but it wont print an PDF attachment to a gmail message

    I cant print art exhibition tickets which are the attachment.

    Each time I try to save or print the PDF it displays Invalid Value For Registry

    Any help would be appreciated but in simple steps please, as I don't understand computer jargon.

    Many Thanks

    Print to PDF missing in Printer List

    Thanks for your help. I was browsing the web the other day and I found a page called FINAL DRAFT. They had a set of instructions for reinstalling the Microsoft Print to PDF utility that worked great for me. Problem solved.
