HP Officejet Pro 6830 printing delay

[coluccjj]

Can someone tell me why it takes up to a minute to print a page. Once I press print the printer appears to go into a lot of gyrations noice wise. Sometimes it will do this even when I am not printing. I assume its doing some self checking but it is very annoying. All my previous printers (not HP) never did this. I would press print and it would print. Cant understand why HP make it so difficult. 

Can someone advise?

thanks

Welcome to HP forums, I see that you are getting slow printing issue.

Reset the printer.

1. Turn the printer on, if it is not already on.

2. Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.

3. With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.

4. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

5. Wait at least 60 seconds.

6. Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.

   NOTE: 

   HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to the wall outlet.

7. Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.

8. Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.

9. Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed.
