Has anyone ran into problems with XP Pro and Networked printing? Everything runs great until we install a networked printers. After that, just to bring up the printer properties takes about 5 minutes. We have the correct drivers installed according to HP. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Check that your IP on the printer isn't being used else where on the network. You should be able to view the printer setting from a web by typing where x is the IP address.
Are you using a jetdirect or similar print server, or is the network i/f builtin? Tez
Backups are great but checking if you can restore is more fun.
