You may simply be faced with the problem referred to here 
<http://www.trevorrow.com/oztex/ozfaq.html#panther-print>:

"Why is printing slower on Panther?

  OzTeX on Panther fails to detect if your current printer supports 
PostScript, so it doesn't call dvips but uses a slow bitmap printing 
method. Fortunately the solution is simple: just tick "Force PostScript 
Printing" in the File menu. This tells OzTeX to assume your printer 
supports PostScript and so it always calls dvips. Ticking that option 
is a good idea anyway because Gimp-Print (which comes installed with 
Panther) allows OzTeX to send PostScript data to a non-PostScript 
printer."
