Outlook XP "Receive & Sending" at startup

Serville
Is there any way to make Outlook-XP to avoid receiving & sending whenever I launch the program ? It seems there is a lag of about 3-4 seconds everytime I open it. I remember there is a setting for this the last time I use it, but I couldn't find it anymore.

Cannot print from IE.

jazzdrive
All of our client computers logged into the Windows 2003 domain cannot print from IE. You go to File->Print, and the print page doesn't even come up. I've checked all the group settings and security settings, but I can't seem to find anything that is relevant.
