I've never heard claims of any significant difference in printing
speeds (Mac vs Win); does your problem extend to printing color from
PS--or just for B&W printing (using other software)...?

For an answer to that question you'd have to tell us more--like what
is the actual printing time for an 8x10 and what driver settings (is
"Hi Speed" mode on/off, etc.?). What is your OS X version (10.2x,
10.3x ?) and how much RAM...
