Printer delayed between print jobs

[mmstanton]

My printer is connected wirelessly, and used to have no issues.  For a while though, it has been delaying (about 15-20 minutes!) between print jobs.  I have tried a few things to no avail- unless I 'remove device' and then 'add a a new printer.'

In the printer queue, it says a job is still printing that has already completed.  If I try to delete it, it takes just as long as it would to just wait. 

An error message comes up right before spooling the next document.  It says: Error printing on Officejet 6600...   printer couldn't print (document name).  That's it.  Then it prints the next document... and I have to wait another 20 minutes for the following document.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your help.  I had to uninstall and re-install the driver.
