When I go to print a PDF that is about 1.1MB using the above computer and printer, it takes a long time to send the print info to the printer. I noticed that when it is loading the information, it tells me it is loading a much larger amount than the file size; sometimes up to 7 MB.
It also now prints with a "reddish" background. I have tried to download new print drivers and updated my PDF reader edition to no avail.
The printer is old and out of circulation, but when it was working correctly, it was a good, fast printer.
Any ideas why the file seems to be much larger when I go to print it? What causes the reddish background color?
