Powerpoint won't print
Powerpoint presentation won't print - When I try and print to any printer it starts out as a small file - 160kb and when it hit's the printer it's starts spooling to over 500MB and eventually nothing prints - I tried network printers, USB printers - Sent it to a friend - Same thing at his house.
Can't figure this out....

Could you try this?
To resolve this problem, bypass EMF spooling. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Open the properties dialog box for the printer.
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. Click the Print directly to the printer option. Than hit apply and than OK.

Well I figured something out - The first Slide is corrupt - When I removed it and printed the rest of them they all printed - Something wrong with the first slide.
I tried the PDF creation but it took out some of the color.

Same thing when printing directly to printer - Only this time you don't see the spooler hang

I have a feeling that the printer driver might be struggling with gradients or transparency or semi-transparent gradients in the PowerPoint file. PowerPoint's PDF / XPS does a good job with this, so running it through the PDF creation might help with that spooling issue.
