I just bought a new Minolta 3300 laser printer. When i try to print from Photoshop 7.0 to this printer, a file that is 1.2M, and i open the printer folder…it shows that it is spooling, but the file size has changed to 66M. It then takes about 15-20 minutes for it to spool before printing. I hope there is something that can be done about this. Printing from other applications is not a problem. – Thanks..Michelle

What pixel size and resolution is your image?

If it is a 1.2MB JPEG, this could well happen, as depending on compression level, it could well be a 50MB image uncompressed. And a temp print file is always larger than an application file.
