Hi @XsianX,
Welcome to The HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand your HP DeskJet 2810e All-in-One Printer (or similar model) is printing slowly, here are some steps you can take to try and improve its performance:
Check Print Quality Settings:
- Open the printer properties on your computer.
- Go to the "Print Quality" or "Paper/Quality" tab.
- Ensure it is set to "Normal" or "Draft" mode instead of "Best" or "High Quality," which can slow down printing.
Update Printer Drivers:
- Visit the HP support website and download the latest drivers for your printer model.
- Install the updated drivers and restart your computer.
Clear Print Queue:
- Go to "Devices and Printers" in Windows.
- Right-click on your printer and select "See what's printing."
- Cancel any pending print jobs that might be causing delays.
Check for Firmware Updates: Update the firmware on an HP printer
- Go to the HP support website to check if there are any firmware updates available for your printer.
- Follow the instructions to update the firmware if needed.
Perform Printer Maintenance:
- Run any built-in maintenance tools from the printer’s control panel or software.
- This might include cleaning printheads or aligning the cartridges.
Check Connection:
- If you're using a wireless connection, ensure your printer has a strong signal from your router.
- Consider switching to a USB connection if the wireless connection is unstable.
Reduce Print Data:
- If you’re printing large files or high-resolution images, try reducing the file size or resolution.
Restart Devices:
- Restart your printer and computer to clear any temporary issues affecting performance.
Check for Paper Jams or Obstructions:
- Inspect the printer for any paper jams or obstructions that could be affecting print speed.
