Hi @Lucile2 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

Thanks for laying out the details so clearly — that helps a lot. If your HP DeskJet 2755e prints slowly only from Chrome OS, while other browsers or platforms work fine, it’s likely a Chrome-specific rendering or driver issue, not a printer hardware fault.

Here’s a tailored fix-it plan:

1. Use the System Print Dialog Instead of Chrome’s

• When printing from Chrome, press Ctrl + Shift + P to open the system print dialog.
• This bypasses Chrome’s built-in print preview, which can sometimes lag with certain printer drivers.

 

2. Disable Advanced Print Features

• Go to chrome://settings/printing (type it into Chrome’s address bar).
• Disable any advanced print features like “Print with system dialog” or “Print using cloud services” if enabled.
• Restart Chrome and try printing again.

 

3. Update Chrome OS

• Go to Settings > About Chrome OS > Check for updates.
• Chrome updates often include printing performance fixes.

 

4. Try Printing from Google Docs or Drive

• If you’re printing from a webpage, try copying the content into Google Docs and printing from there.
• This can help isolate whether the issue is with Chrome’s rendering engine or the printer interface.

 

5. Use HP Print for Chrome Extension

• Install the HP Print for Chrome extension — it’s optimized for HP printers and may improve performance.

If none of these help, let me know:

• What type of content you’re printing (PDF, webpage, form)?
• Whether the delay happens before printing starts or during the actual print?

We’ll dig deeper if needed — I’ve got your back.
