When you are using a Windows operating system, the printer
driver settings override those set using the control panel. Set the
input tray you want using the printer driver.
For details, see the printer driver's Help.
• Paper is damp. Use paper that has been stored properly. See
page 34 "Paper Precautions".
• If printed sheets come out curled, use the standard tray
extension. See page 8 "Guide to Components".
If the printer is turned off while accessing the hard disk (for
example: during file deletion), the printer will require more time to
power-up the next time it is turned on. To avoid this time delay, do
not turn the printer off while it is in operation.
• The data is so large or complex that it takes time to process it.
If Data In indicator is flashing, the data is being processed.
Wait until it resumes.
• The printer was in the Energy Saver mode or the Sleep mode.
To recover from these modes, the printer must warm up, and
this takes time until printing starts. For details, see page 18
"Saving Energy".
• Photographs and other data-intensive pages take a long time
for the printer to process, so wait when printing such data.
Changing the settings with printer driver may help to speed up
printing. For details, see the printer driver's Help.
