Default Excel slow but NOT when connected remotely!!

Hi I have a customer that says Excel is really slow, just selecting a
cell then clicking Bold takes about 10-15 seconds to do. The strange
thing is when I remote desktop to his computer and use Excel it is like
lightning. Everything runs fast and as it should. I really can't
understand how this could be because I am basically using his PC when I
remote desktop to it so how can it work fine for me but not for him? If
anything you would think it would be the other way round! Please help!

Could it be that the printer driver is located on the network, too.

If you install a different printer driver locally and switch to that printer
(even if it doesn't actually exist), does the speed come back?
