(Windows )
Check that the paper size setting in the application and in the printer driver are
the same.
(Windows)
Try changing the printer driver setting. The highest resolution needs longer data
processing, sending, and printing time. Try the other quality settings in the printer
driver as follows:
In the printer driver, clear the Colour Enhancement check box on the Advanced
tab.
Turn the Borderless feature off. Borderless printing is slower than normal printing.
See Related Information: Print Settings (Windows).
Turn the Quiet Mode setting off. Print speed is slower in Quiet Mode. See
Related Information: Reduce Printing Noise.
Make sure the Media Type setting in the printer driver or in the application you
use to print matches the type of paper you are using.
See Related Information: Print Settings (Windows).
