Printing Is Too Slow
❏
When printing continuously for approximately more than 10 minutes, printing slows down to prevent the
printer mechanism from overheating and being damaged. However, you can continue printing. To return to
normal printing speed, leave the printer idle for at least 30 minutes. Printing speed does not return to normal if
the power is off.
❏
Close any unnecessary applications.
❏
Lower the quality setting on the control panel or the printer driver. High quality printing slows down the
printing speed.
