After first launch, Document Properties dialog box comes up very slowly

Issue


After first launching Macromedia Flash, Document Properties dialog box takes a long time to launch. You may also see delays when trying to print from Flash or from other applications (Internet Explorer for example).

Reason


One possible cause of this behavior is having a default printer driver installed for a printer that does not exist on your network anymore or is otherwise unreachable.

Ref. (134698)

Solution


Delete the unused or unreachable default printer from your printers list.
