hp9020 printing speed

[Gator99]

my hp 9020 takes a juddery 45 seconds to print at best quality. 

When on a print run of 100, I run out of paper and reload the printer.  the print speed is then decreased to about 15/20 seconds with out losing print quality for the first 3 prints then goes back to the juddery 45 seconds .  My question is how do i get that faster speed all the time ??  

I dont want to lose print quality but how do i get the faster speed.

Hi @Gator99,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Resolve slow printing (Windows)

• Check HP printer hardware and software on your Windows computer to improve printing speeds.
• 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.

Reduce print quality to improve print speed (Windows)

• Selecting certain paper types or printing in higher quality can slow print speeds. Print with plain paper in reduced quality for faster print speeds.
