Sheet Print Dialog Box

I mentioned on this list some time ago that when using a script something like this:

on printChart
   answer page setup as sheet
   answer printer as sheet
   put  the printPaperRectangle into tPrintRect
   print card from topLeft of me to bottomRight of me into tPrintRect
end printChart


That after the page setup dialog box comes up and the OK button was clicked there was a long wait, up to 9seconds,
before the printer dialog came up.

Normally after clicking the OK button in the page setup dialog I just sit there waiting for the printer dialog box.

I have just noticed that if I move my mouse across the screen after the page setup dialog has gone from the screen
then the printer dialog displays immediately. If I don’t move the mouse I have to wait for 9 seconds.

This is on a Mac running 10.9.2. Don’t know about windows.

Can someone verify this please.


Thanks

Terry
