Printing is too slow.
Make sure your system meets the requirements listed in “Notices.” If
you’re printing a high-resolution image, you need more than the
minimum requirements listed. You may also need to:
■
Clear space on your hard drive or run a defragmentation utility.
■
Close open programs that you’re not using.
■
Increase your system’s memory (RAM).
For the fastest printing, try these tips:
■
Choose
Black
ink if your document doesn’t include color.
■
Set the Quality/Speed slider to
Speed
.
■
In the Advanced window, turn
MicroWeave
®
off and/or turn
High
Speed
on.
■
Disconnect USB devices that you’re not using.
Your memory card does not work correctly with your printer or
computer.
■
Make sure the card’s capacity is 512MB or less and it only contains
photos taken with a DCF-compliant digital camera.
■
Make sure you follow the instructions on the
Start Here
sheet to
install PhotoStarter and CardMonitor. If you use the New Hardware
Wizard, these utilities may not be installed.
■
Check your PhotoStarter settings. See page 11 for instructions.
■
If you access the card from your computer and delete files, the card
may not work correctly with your camera. Always delete pictures
using your camera.
■
If you’re using Windows 2000, you may need to reinstall the storage
device driver, following the instructions on page 89.
■
If the Found New Hardware wizard appears after you have already
installed the software for Windows 2000, you may need to reinstall
the storage device driver, following the instructions on page 89.
The optional preview monitor and control panel respond too slowly.
When you have lots of photos or large files on your memory card, it takes
longer for the preview monitor to process them. This causes the monitor
and control panel to respond more slowly. Try deleting any photos you
don’t need before you remove the card from your camera.
Borderless printing takes
longer than normal,
especially near the edges
of the paper. Printing
without a computer is
also slower.
