Ethernet Printer - Slower than USB Connection

G

Guest

I have a new HP printer with built in Ethernet. I have the printer connected
to my router via ethernet cable.

When I try to print a document, it takes over two minutes for the printer to
start printing after I hit send. I get no errors. It just takes forever.
Printer, router and computre are set to 100/full. All get IPs via DHCP.

Also, when I connect this printer via USB, its very fast. How can it be
that a 100 MBps is slow? 90 seconds to spool and print a 74k work doc.
