Hi,
Have a look at the link below for the solution!

Slow Printing, Print Times Too Long, Processing Between Pages, First Page Out Times Too Long
- Image complexity
- Image size (amount of coverage)
- Collation from the software application
- Number of non-resident fonts used
- Type of port used and network traffic
- Printer's memory configuration
- Resolution/print quality settings set at the host or the printer front panel
- Media type(ie: paper or transparencies)
- If the printer model supports job pipe-lining
- Macintosh: the driver defaults to binary >Windows 95/98/ME: check printer properties. Under the Postscript tab, click the Advanced button. Ensure the box Use Automatic />
- Windows NT: change the output protocol. The Adobe driver must be installed before changing. Once this driver is installed, go to printer properties and select the Device Settings tab. Locate the selection for Output Protocol and change from ASCII to Binary for a network connection, or from ASCII to BCP for a parallel connection.
Phaser printers are rated on a page-per-minute basis. This encompasses print engine speed only, and does not take into account processing time or file transfer rates.
Total print time is affected by many factors, some of which are listed below:
Check the Driver Settings
Driver settings may have an impact on total print time. From the platforms listed below, check for correct driver settings.
Note: The information above applies to printer models prior to the Phaser 850 and Phaser 750. These print drivers have the driver set correctly by default.
Collation
Collation from a driver level allows the printer to process a print job once and then print N copies, where N is the number of copies selected by the user (ie 5 sets of a 10 page document = 10 processed pages).
Application collation requires the printer to process every page of the document N times (5 sets of a 10 page document = 50 processed pages). To avoid collating from an application level, ensure the collate box (see figure below) is not checked when in the print dialog box (ie selecting file/print).
