Color printing is not working or is extremely slow
Are the ink cartridges for color printing installed?
The following ink cartridges are required for color printing.
•
Yellow, cyan, magenta, and black ink cartridges
•
Multicolor and black ink cartridges
•
Yellow, cyan, and magenta ink cartridges and Finish cartridge
Are the print settings correct?
In the Colors dialog box (part of the Print dialog box), select Millions of
Colors or Fixed Color from the Colors menu.
Is the free space on the hard disk fragmented?
The time required for printing can increase dramatically if the free space on
the disk drive is extremely fragmented. Clean up your files and defragment
the disk by periodically using a defragment utility.
Is enough memory allocated?
Color printing may not be possible if the memory allocated to the applica-
tion is insufficient. Allocate more memory to the application.
Are you using memory management tools or virtual memory?
Whenever you are using memory management tools such as RAM Doubler
or virtual memory, memory may not be correctly recognized for color print-
ing.
When color printing is not working, try disabling these utilities and try again.
Do you have enough disk space?
Make sure there is enough empty space on your hard disk. (The working
space is released once printing is finished.)
When there is just barely enough working space left on the disk, printing
may take much longer than normal.
Is the application set for color printing? Does the application support
color printing?
Some applications have color printing enable/disable settings. Some appli-
cations do not support color printing. Read the manual for the application
and check the color settings.
Are you using many applications at one time?
When very little memory is available for print processing, printing may take
a long time or fail. Close as many applications as possible and try again.
Do you have enough memory?
Handling color images requires a lot of memory for the application and for
the data. Sometimes there is insufficient memory left for printing. Make
sure your computer has enough memory to print the size of images you are
using.
