84 Chapter 4 Problem solving

ENWW

Print job is extremely slow.

The job might be very complex.

The maximum speed of the printer
cannot be exceeded even when
more memory is added.

Printing speeds might be
automatically reduced when printing
on special-sized media.

Reduce the complexity of the page
or try adjusting the print-quality
settings. If this problem occurs
frequently, add memory to the
printer.

You are printing a PDF or
PostScript (PS) file using a PCL
printer driver.

Try using the PS printer driver
rather than the PCL printer driver.
(You can usually do this from a
software program.)

In the printer driver, Optimize for:
is set to cardstock, heavy, rough, or
bond paper.

In the printer driver, set the type to
plain paper (see

“Printing by type

and size of media” on page 53

).

Note: If you change the setting to
plain paper, the print job will print
faster. However, if you are using
heavy media, for best results leave
the printer driver set to heavy even
though printing might be slower.

Print job prints on both sides
of the paper.

The printer is set for duplexing.

See

“Changing the settings for a

print job” on page 47

to change the

setting, or see the online Help.

Print job contains only one
page but the printer
processes the back side of
the page as well (the page
comes part of the way out,
and then goes back into the
printer).

The printer is set for duplexing.
Even if the print job contains only
one page, the printer processes the
back side as well.

See

“Changing the settings for a

print job” on page 47

to change the

setting, or see the online Help.

Do not try to pull the page out of the
printer before duplexing is
complete. Jamming might result.

Pages print, but are totally
blank.

The sealing tape might still be in the
print cartridge.

Remove the print cartridge and pull
out the sealing tape. Reinstall the
print cartridge.

The file might have blank pages.

Check the file to make sure that it
does not contain blank pages.
