I have a HP deskjet 2336 that I have bought a few weeks ago and initially it seemed to print well with no issues however over the past couple of days it seems that the printing is very slow, even though everything is printed perfectly and all is right , just that it is slow when it prints. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I would really appreciate any responses! Thank you

Hi @okk123dogg,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be happy to help you!
I understand that you are having issues with the slow printing.
Update the firmware. Click here
Perform the following tasks in the order given. Use the printer after each task to see if the issue is resolved.
Reset the printer
- Reset the printer to recover from printer errors or failures.
- If your printer has a rechargeable battery, remove it.
- Press the power button to turn off the printer. If the printer does not turn off, disconnect the power cord from the printer.
- Unplug the power cord from the power source.
- Wait 60 seconds.
- Connect the power cord directly to a wall outlet and to the printer.
- Turn on the printer to complete the reset.
Turn off Quiet Mode (Windows)
- Quiet Mode reduces noise levels when printing, but can also reduce print speed.
- Quiet Mode is not available for all printers.
- HP Smart app: Open the HP Smart app, click your printer, click Advanced Settings. On the Settings tab, click Quiet Mode under Preferences, select Off, and then click Apply.
- NOTE:
- If prompted for a password or PIN, enter the password previously set by the printer administrator or PIN from the label on your printer. You can find the label on the back of the printer or open the cartridge access door and look inside the printer.
- HP Printer Assistant: Search Windows for your printer, and then select your printer in the results to open HP Printer Assistant. On the Quiet Mode tab, select Off, and then click Save Setting.
Click here for the remaining steps.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
