Problem
There is considerable
delay between the
print start instruction
and actual printing.
Cause
Processing time de-
pends on data vol-
ume. High volume
data, such as graph-
ics-heavy documents,
take longer to process.
Solution
If the data-in lamp is blinking, data has been
received by the printer. Wait for a moment.
Making the following setting on the printer
driver may reduce the computer's workload.
❖ PCL 5e/6
Select the lower value for [Resolution] on
the [Print Quality] tab in the printer proper-
ties dialog box.
