Symantec AntVirus Corporate Edition 10.1 Slow Printing

Hello,

I have 5 workstations running Windows XP/2000 and use ACCPAC (DOS
based) to do their accounts. There is a "main" workstation with the
same OS which is connected to a parallel printer (dot matrix), this
printer is the shared and the other workstations print to this
printer.

The specifications of the machines range from 1 GHz - 3 GHz and RAM
sits in at 256MB - 1GB.

Before Symantec AV was installed if one of the workstations sent a
document to be printed to the main workstation it would take about 1-2
seconds then it would spool and print, however after Symantec AV was
installed on all the workstations it now takes 30-40 seconds to send
the document to the printer.

I have removed Symantec AV from the "main" workstation but this still
happens now, is there any way to rectify this problem?!

Thanks,
Ashish
