I originally had WMM enabled, I disabled it but that didn’t help. FW is 6.30.1.
I wonder if I’m having a Fast Path problem when devices try to communicate across the wireless LAN. I could disable Fast Path on the bridge, but I’m not sure this traffic even hits the bridge if it’s going from one wireless client to another. I am used to problems setting up wireless printers, but usually it works once you get it to connect.

Did you try turning WMM on/off at the MT? Latest firmware?

We supplied a Mikrotik RB951G-2HnD. Note that printing isn't just a little bit slow, one page takes like 10 minutes. Everything looks fine in the WiFi stats and changing WiFi parameters has not made any difference. Pinging this device from the Mikrotik, we get higher ping times and more variation than other devices, not sure if this is related. Since there does not seem to be a WiFi problem, I'm wondering if it could be some higher layer protocol problem, like the fact that we have UPnP disabled on the Mikrotik. Could Lexmark be using UPnP between the computer driver and the printer? If so, would it care if UPnP is enabled on the router? I really don't understand UPnP, other than to know I don't like it from a security standpoint.
