Make sure you are using only one software application at a time. If
there are any other applications running in the background, shut them
down.
Limit the number of colours on the page. Try using only primary
colours: black, cyan, magenta and yellow.
Try a lower quality or resolution setting to speed up printing. For
details refer to the Windows Print Guide or the Macintosh Print Guide.
The default setting for printing resolution is 600 x 600 dpi. Printing
will be much slower if you select the maximum setting of 1200 x 1200
dpi. Use the maximum setting only for special print jobs that require
very high quality.
Increase the amount of memory in your computer. For details, refer to
your computer hardware manual.
Copy graphic images into another software application and then try
printing again.
Upgrade your computer system to a computer with a higher process-
ing speed.
If you are using a screen saver program, disable it and then try print-
ing again.
Make sure the printer is on and that the POWER lamp is on.
Make sure the interface cable is connected securely on the back of the
printer and on the host computer.
Make sure the paper is properly loaded in the sheet feeder and the
paper cassette.
Start the print job again.
