Has it always worked this way?  If not, when did it change?  Did you make any changes (hardware or software) to your system just before this started.  Is the print very small an very slow with all apps from which you might print?

Not knowing the actual print "speed" it is not possible to ascertain exactly what the "very slow" is related to. However both the speed and size are potentially affected by manual settings that you may have applied. For instance speed of print is very much a factor of the 'quality " setting you select. "Fine" quality will be much slower than the lowest quality setting of the print job. Also print size is a factor of the "font" size selection. Have you checked those  settings? truenorth

I have to agree with those before me, it is hard to tell without knowing what software your using and the manual print settings you are using.  I would check print properties within your word processor and make sure you don't have it set on High quality.  Most printers I've used also have a diagnostic tool, that will print a test to make sure alignment, colors, etc.. are printing correctly.  And it goes without saying make sure you have updated you printer drivers.
