Why does MS write such crap software?

We built a custom order entry and invoicing application for our company in MS Access. On the whole, it's great. Try to edit reports, however, and it becomes dreadfully slow, meaning you can click on a control and it will take 10+ seconds for the control to show being selected. Once selected, you can hit an arrow key and it will take 10 seconds to move.

Why?

Because network printer was selected as the default.

How the f can network printer being selected as the default make designing reports extremely slow?
