• Close any software applications not in use.
• Check the document you are printing. Photos and graphics may take longer to print
than regular text. Documents that are large or that contain background images may
also take longer to print.
• Check the printer to see if another document is being printed. Print jobs are printed in
the order the printer receives them. If other documents were sent to the printer before
yours, your document is delayed until the other documents print.
• Decrease the print quality setting to Normal or Quick Print.
Note: Higher print quality settings result in better quality documents, but may
take longer to print.
