Printing Is Slow

Check1

Printer may be printing a large job from another computer.

Check2

Make sure the printer is not placed too far away from the wireless router.

Place the wireless router and printer where there are no obstacles between them. Wireless communication
between different rooms or floors is generally poor. Wireless communication can be impeded by building
materials containing metal or concrete. If the printer cannot communicate with the computer over a wireless LAN
due to a wall, place the printer and the computer in the same room.

In addition, if a device like a microwave oven that emits radio waves of the same frequency bandwidth as a
wireless router is nearby, it may cause interference. Place the wireless router as far away from interference
sources as possible.

Note

• Though an antenna is attached to most wireless routers, note that some of them have it inside.

Check3

Make sure wireless signal is strong. Monitor signal status and move printer and

wireless router as necessary. (Windows)
