The printer is set to print on a paper type that requires slower printing. | Certain paper type, like heavyweight paper takes 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, 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. |
