I run old Photoshop 7 and I have Brother HL-2040 laser printer hooked into the USB port on my Asus WL-520gU wrt router. With Windows XP it worked perfectly. Would only wake up when I attempted to print something to it. Now with Windows 7 every time I start photoshop the printer wakes form sleep and warms up unecessarily.

It doesn't seem to do this with any other software. Just photoshop. And it never did it before with Windows XP.

Anyone?

Just a shot in the dark here... try setting a different printer as your Windows default.
