Problem-solving checklist
If you are experiencing problems with the device, use the following checklist to identify the cause of the
problem:
●
Is the device connected to power?
●
Is the device on?
●
Is the device in the Ready state?
●
Are all necessary cables connected?
●
Do any messages appear on the control panel?
●
Are genuine HP supplies installed?
●
Was a recently replaced print cartridge installed correctly, and was the pull tab on the cartridge
removed?
For additional information about installation and setup, see the device getting started guide.

Factors that affect device performance
Several factors affect the time it takes to print a job:
●
Maximum device speed, measured in pages per minute (ppm)
●
The use of special paper (such as transparencies, heavy paper, and custom-size paper)
●
Device processing and download time
●
The complexity and size of graphics
●
The speed of the computer you are using
●
The USB connection
●
The device I/O configuration
●
The amount of device memory installed
●
The network operating system and configuration (if applicable)
●
Device personality (PCL or PS)
NOTE
Although additional device memory can resolve memory problems, improve how the
device handles complex graphics, and improve download times, it will not increase maximum
device speed (ppm).
