Slow Printer in Windows XP

I am running WinXP Home with a NEC Superscript 870 Laser printer (using a parallel port connection, this printer doesn't use USB). Compared to Win98SE, my printouts run slower than snails!

There is no updated driver for this printer on the NEC site (it says to use the driver that comes with XP, which I am).

Is there a way to juice up the spooler in XP to get it to run at least as fast as it did in SE?

I have fiddled with the "Direct to Printer" option and the "Spooler" options in the advanced properties of the printer setup in Control Panel. Every option runs slowly.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Northland
