Default How can a print macro run faster ?

It is hard to say without seeing the code, but it is a known problem
in Excel that anything related to Page Setup is quite slow, due at
least in part to the fact that Excel must communicate with the
printer, a slow connection.

Cordially,

I use excel2002sp3 on WinXP. I have a macro which opens PageSetup and inputs
the settings, then prints 3 copies of the report concerned. It seems to run
much slower than other macros. Is this normal ? How can I get a macro to run
faster ?

Thanks ... Roger
