Print speed service check
The speed of the 24xx printers varies with the font, forms thickness
setting, and printhead temperature. Graphics output may print slowly
due to data throughput limitations. Thermal sensing is built into the
printhead on 249x printers and protects the printhead from
overheating.
6 Logic board If no problem is found with the other
components, but the power problem still
remains, replace the logic board and reset the
bidirectional print adjustment. Go to
“Bidirectional print adjustment” on
