Slow Typing in Office 2007

[Vicious]

I am using a IBM Lenovo computer with Office 2007 and Business Manager installed. The computer works properly except with Outlook and Word. If I type a word, then it will take 15 seconds for it to appear. If I am typing a sentence, then it might take upto 40 seconds for it to appear. When I am typing in IE as I am now, there is no issue, just with Outlook and Word remains the problem. Any workaround for same?

Since the problem is with Outlook then check the Add/Remove Programs for an add-in called Outlook Add-in. I was also having similar issues as you have described on my pc and that solved the problem for me, along with a couple other minor bugs I was getting.

Check in Add and Remove Programs to see something like "Outlook Add-in", if it is there then it will solve the typing problem for you. Incase you are also getting a bug in Outlook where it automatically repeats appointments then it will also fix that problem.

I know this is an old thread, but I have a new twist. I am running office 2007 on windows 7. There is significant lag in typing and I am a very slow typist. It is only in word, my outlook is fine. The problem exists only when my network printer is selected as my default printer. The only local printer I have is my pdf printer.

Edit: The problem was solved, apparently an out of date printer driver was the issue. A new windows 7 printer driver for HP LaserJet 1018 was just released a couple of days ago.
