Very Slow To Select Printer

I have a number of printers on my home office network, running XP Pro. Two
are networked and the other two are parallel port.
Everything works, but lately it seems like when I select a printer from the
application (MS Word, Excel, etc. and QB 2007) it take forever to load the
driver and get itself ready to print. Printing seems normal, but the software
set up time seem much longer that before.
Any ideas as to what may be going on would greatly be appreciated.
