Hi @Alonilalo 

Welcome to the HP support community.
 

I understand you're experiencing an issue with your HP device, and I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. I'm here to help you today.

Here’s a quick troubleshooting guide for your HP Smart Tank 5105 slow printing issue:

Clear Print Queue:

• Go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers, right-click your printer, and select See what's printing. Cancel any stuck print jobs.

Check Wi-Fi Connection:

• Ensure your printer is connected to a strong Wi-Fi network. Test by printing a Network Configuration Page from the printer.

Update Drivers/Firmware:

• Go to the HP website, download the latest drivers and firmware for your printer.

Check Print Settings:

• Set print quality to Normal in the print dialog box to avoid slow, high-quality modes.

Test with USB Connection:

• Try connecting the printer directly to your PC via USB to see if Wi-Fi is causing the issue.

Perform Soft Reset:

• Turn off the printer, unplug it for 1 minute, then plug it back in and turn it on.

Disable Antivirus/Firewall Temporarily:

• Disable your antivirus/firewall to see if they are causing delays.

I hope this helps! Keep me posted.
