Access freezing while printing

Hi,
I have a program that's been written with Access. In that application,
there
is a form that let you print a sequential batch of sticker, you just need to
specify from what number to what number to print.
The problem is that once the "Print" button has been pressed, the
access-application freezes until the entire data is processed and printed.
How could we avoid this? Is this because access can only manage one job at
a time (in that case, when the application is sending data to the printer,
it
cannot do anything else)?

Thanks,
Etienne
