Printing Is Too Slow

menu > Printers & Scanners (or Print & Scan, Print & Fax), and

Printing
setting.

Printing Slows Down Dramatically During Continuous Printing
Printing slows down to prevent the printer mechanism from overheating and being damaged. However, you can
continue printing. To return to normal printing speed, leave the printer idle for at least 30 minutes. Printing speed
does not return to normal if the power is off.
