Firefox Will Not Load Right

I just bought a Brother All-In-One printer and for some reason it seems to cause problems with Firefox. If the printer is turned on when I try to load Firefox I see the hourglass for about a minute and then it finally loads very slowly. If the printer is turned off, things seem to load normally. Is there any reason why the printer would interfere with loading a browser? I appreciate any comments you might have about this situation.

is FF set as a default browser? If Firefox is already on when you turn on the printer no slowdowns? Any similar issues with IE?

Yes Firefox is my default browser. The problem does not occur with Opera or Safari but I never use IE at all. I don't see any slowdowns if Firefox is already on when I turn on the printer. I am wondering if the printer software that loads at startup might be causing the problem? This is a Brother Model MFC-240C and it loads some scanner software when I boot the computer each morning.
