Printing is too slow.

Make sure your system meets the requirements listed on page 4. If you’re printing
a high-resolution image, you need more than the minimum requirements listed.

You may also need to:

■

Clear space on your hard disk or run a defragmentation utility.

■

Close open applications that you’re not using.

■

Increase your system’s memory (RAM).

For the fastest printing, try the following:

■

Choose

Black

ink if your document doesn’t include color.

■

Set the Quality/Speed slider to

Speed

■

In the printer software’s Advanced dialog box, turn

MicroWeave

off and turn

High Speed

on.

■

If the printer is connected to your computer’s parallel port, enable ECP/DMA
mode on the port for maximum print speeds. See your computer
documentation or contact the manufacturer for instructions.

Your printer makes noise when you plug it in or after it has been sitting for a
while.

Your printer is performing routine maintenance.
