Printing Takes Too Long
Probable Causes
Solutions
The printer is set to print on a paper type that
requires slower printing.
Certain paper types, like heavyweight paper and
transparencies, take more time to print. Ensure that the print
driver and control panel are set to the proper paper type.
The printer is in Power Saver mode.
Wait. It takes time for printing to start after the printer exits
Power Saver mode.
The way the printer was installed on the
network could be an issue.
•
Determine if a print spooler or a computer sharing the
printer is buffering all print jobs and then spooling them to
the printer. Spooling can slow print speeds.
•
To test the speed of the printer, print multiple copies of an
information page, such as a demo page. If the page prints
at the rated speed of the printer, there could be a network
or printer installation issue. For additional help, contact the
system administrator.
The job is complex.
Wait. No action needed.
