Activating bold function takes time
 

I have a PC which is having Office XP installed in it.

When i try to make a text in a cell bold the first time in any worksheet, it
takes aprroximately 4-5 mins, but the very next moment if i want to make
another cell bold, it happens as normal. can u help with the reason why it so
happens & is there any solution for the same. I also tried reinstalling
Office (different version) twice after removing the previous installed
version but the problem is still persisting.

I think I've read posts that say that when this kind of thing happens, it's
usually because the current printer is a network printer.

If you change to a different (local) printer, does it work faster?

You may want to install a printer driver for that "local" printer--even if you
don't have a physical printer to connect to.

Another thing you could test is getting a new printer driver from the
manufacturer's site.
