If you are printing on plain paper, and the printing is slow but continuous:

  1. From the program you are using, such as MICROSOFT Word, select Print.
  2. Click Properties.
    NOTE: With most programs, when the Print dialog opens, the Properties button is available. In some cases, such as from WINDOWS Internet Explorer, you need to select Preferences instead of Properties.
  3. Click the Advanced tab.
  4. Select Plain Paper from the Paper type list.

If your printer prints and stops, then prints and stops (takes a long time to complete a print), check the connection between your computer and all-in-one printer.

  • If your printer is connected with a USB cable:

    • Make sure your printer is connected directly to your computer instead of a hub.
    • Make sure you are using a USB 2.0 cable to connect your printer to your computer and that the distance between them is less than 6 ft (1.8 m).
  • If your printer has a wireless connection, make sure your printer is located within the recommended distance of the router.
