Hi @teduod

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the slow printing issue. 

 

To better assist you - Are you experiencing this issue while making a  copy as well? 

 

While you respond to that, please try these steps - 

 

1) Take out the cartridges.

2) Unplug the power cord from the printer & wall.

3) Wait for 30 seconds. 

4) Plug the power cord back into the printer and wall, ensure the printer is plugged into the wall & not to a surge protector.

5) Insert the cartridges back into the printer.

 

Also, try updating the printer's firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware

Hi Asmita6658,

Thank you for your response.

I tried your solutions and the printer was still printed slowly.

I decided to check another time all the parameters and i found this one :

"print directly onto the printer" 

that is to say without "spooler"

I tried it and the printing is OK, that is to say with the same speed as before.

Have a good day.

Best regards.
