Make sure the port setting configuration in the computer is set
to ECP (Windows 95 and Windows 98 only)

See the computer’s manual for information on how to change your
port setting, or contact your computer manufacturer.

Make sure the computer has enough resources available
(Windows only)

If less than 80 percent of the computer resources are available,
printing could be significantly slower.

To make more computer resources available, close all unused
applications and resend your print job. If necessary, restart your
system, and then resend your print job.

Make sure you have removed the printhead protective tapes that
cover the ink nozzles.

If you are printing black text and a blank page prints, your black ink
cartridge might be empty.

Check the printer setup
