Printer Is Printing Very Slow After New Router Install

I just installed a new linksys router, and now my v515w printer is printing painfully slow (2 minutes to print one page).  I have uninstalled, reinstalled several times, along with shutting down PC etc.  What could be the problem?  HELP!!

I believe that the problem of your Dell V515W printer/scanner may be related to a driver software conflict. Since you have installed a new router, there might be driver files affected during the installation. The best solution for this is to install the latest driver software compatible with this device. You can download the driver software here:

You may also refer to the user's manual for additional information. Here's the link:
