Extremely slow printing with hp photosmart d110

Recently, I've had extremely slow wireless printing from my laptop to our HP Photosmart D110 series printer.  The printer is part of our wireless network and is used by my business laptop and our home laptop.  When I send a simple Excel spreadsheet to print, the printer screen says, "Printing", the on/off light flashes and it looks like it's printing.  But it takes 1-2 minutes for the document to finally print.  This problem does not occur when we print from the home laptop; things print instantly.  No updates or system changes before this problem started.

1-2 minutes! Try 10-15 minutes on my Photosmart. These things are junk. I have discussed my many issues with phone support 10-12 times in the last six months with no progress.

  • Extremely slow printing on a photosmart c4480 connected with a macbook

    My printer is suddenly printing really slow. Once I press print  ( one simple a4 document) it pulls the paper  in, it prints a little bit it stops for a minute or 2 then prints another small bit, then stops and restarts after a while and so on. takes ages to print on a4 simple page but in the end it prints the page. Same problem when I photocopy.
    Strangely enough it printed in perfect speed the test page when I held cancel and start copy simultaneously.
    I 've done all the normal  troubbleshoot  stuff taking off the powercord do a semi reset  from the front panel,even removing the software and reinstalling it, but the problem persists.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Could this be a mechanical problem that needs a technicial and therefore money so more expensive than buying a new one? I only bought this printer a year and a half ago.
    I would really appreciate any help.

    There may be a driver setting that is causing the slow speed. I have seen settings like 'Print after RIP', which means the first page doesn't start printing until the entire print (spool) file is received.
    I would also check that you are not printing at a very high resolution, like 1200dpi. This would increase the amount of processing required by the printer.
    If you are printing from Acrobat, open the print dialog and click the Advanced tab. Ensure 'Print As Image' is not checked.
    Could you also explain how your Mac is connecting the printer. Is it via IP, AppleTalk or some other connection?

  • SLOW printing with HP PhotoSmart 7960

    If this has already been addressed in another thread, please someone point me there, but:
    Problem is that suddenly my HP PhotoSmart 7960 has started to take 1/2 hour to print a simple single page of text. I'm using OS X 10.3.9, by the way.
    Tried updating the drivers from HP - no good. Tried Repair Permissions - no good.
    Can someone out there tell me how to completely remove any trace of HP software / drivers from the hard drive? Is there a print queue or memory buffer that needs to be purged? Figured I'd re-install the original drivers if I could completely remove any trace of a printer or print job having previously existed.
    Spent more than a few frustrating hours on this - any help is appreciated!

  • Extremely slow wireless printing with HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

    I'm seeing extremely slow print speeds when printing wirelessly from a Mac or a Windows XP system to a new HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer. The printer begins printing immediately when I request a print, but it only prints one line. It will then take about 15 minutes to print the rest of the page, printing each line after a very long pause. Demo page printing doesn't exhibit this problem, only documents from programs like Word 2008, Safari and Firefox (tried firefox on PC and Mac) are affected.
    If I connect to the printer through a USB connection it prints fine, so this problem appears to be with wireless printing only.
    Printer: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
    Computer: Mac mini (Late 2009 model) (also tried a Windows XP laptop as a comparison, using latest drivers from HP's website)
    OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2 with all available updates installed
    Computer connection method: Wired Ethernet connection to wireless router
    Printer drivers: version 2.2.1 (Apple supplied, HP drivers never installed as system shipped with 10.6)
    Wireless router: Apple TimeCapsule (Early 2009) 1TB, running in a/n and b/g modes on 2.4 and 5GHz. TimeCapsule is in bridging mode as the DSL modem handles DHCP service
    Encryption: WPA2 Personal, no MAC filtering or hiding of the SSID.
    IP addressing scheme: All addresses are handed out by DHCP server with no reservations of any kind
    The TimeCapsule is sitting three inches from the printer and the printer indicates full signal. Connection of the printer to the wireless network and setup of the printer on the Mac went without a hitch. Only when printing a test document did we discover the problem. The wireless network is behaving as expected when accessing the Internet from both Mac and Windows devices (tested with a Dell laptop running XP and a MacBook running OS X 10.6.2), so I don't see any overall problems with the wireless network.
    Attempted remedies:
    1. Rebooting and powering off, waiting, powering on computer
    2. Resetting the print subsystem, turning the printer off and on again and reinstalling the printer
    3. Unplugging power from the printer and letting it sit for several minutes before trying to print wirelessly.
    None of these worked.

    I don't think there is anything wrong with the DSL modem HW.  There might be an issue with how print data is being routed though.
    Please try the second experiment where you blank-out the default gateway and DNS entries from the printer's internal web configuration page.  Open the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address.  Select Networking and then Wireless (802.11).  Under the IPv4 Configuration tab, select Manual IP:
    For Manual IP Address, use the existing printer IP address.
    For Manual Subnet Mask, use 255.255.255.0
    For Manual Default Gateway, leave blank.  This is important.
    Select Manual DNS Server:
    Leave both the Manual Preferred DNS Server and Manual Alternate DNS Server fields empty.  This is important.
    Press Apply.
    Turn off the DSL modem, the printer and all computers connected to your network.  Wait 60 seconds then turn on the DSL modem and then turn on the printer.  Then turn on the computers.  See if this corrects the printing speed.

  • Trouble printing USPS labels from E-Bay with HP Photosmart D110

    I am having trouble printing shipping labels (USPS) from E-Bay with HP Photosmart D110. I was able to print for a short while after I bought it, but I tried later and the printer freezes up. It will show printing, but will freeze up until you x out. I am using Windows XP on a 6yr old Toshiba Satellite laptop. I have downloaded the HP utility that troubleshoots some printer problems, and it will fix the problem sometimes. I also have went in and turned printer spooling off, then back on. This has helped a few times. It takes me on the average, 40min to get one label to print. I am a seller on E-Bay and print labels daily. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

    The envelope size that you might be talking about is a 6.75 Regular, or 6.75R.  If you were printing on window envelopes, it would be 6.75W.  In all my life, I have never heard of a #6 ep.  Yes, you have a challenge with 6.75 because the rollers are not in the correct place for this size of item.  In order for me to print 10R envelopes, I have to insert a precut sheet of paper inside the envelope so that the envelope pulls correctly and doesn't get jammed. You might try this with your 6.75 and see if that works for you.

  • How to fix extremely slow printing from web pages with latest updates (iMac) & HP Office jet printer. (It was not a problem with earlier versions of Firefox & same computer & printer.)

    The latest two updates of Mozilla Firefox are not useful for me because of extremely slow printing of web pages. It was never a problem before. Same iMac and HP officejet printer. How can I either fix it, or revert to an earlier version of the browser (without losing all my bookmarks) which didn't cause this problem?

    Try scanning from your Mac.  Use Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
    Click once on the scanner on the left side, then click on Show Details along the bottom.  Along the right side you will see LOTS of options for scanning and saving.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8610 - Extremely slow printing

    Hello,
      I have just purchased my new HP 8610 All in one printer. I have set everything up wirelessly. For some reason when I print documents it is extremely slow printing. I cant seem to find the problem for this. For a 5 page documents it could take minutes to print. Please help, thanks in advance

    Hi nat1985,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that your HP Officejet pro 8610 is printing PDF files very slow, and I am happy to help you with this slow printing issue!
    For further assistance, I will need to know the following information:
    If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    If the printer is connected, Wireless, Ethernet, or USB.
    If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
    If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
    If the printer prints slow from Notepad.
    Hope to hear from you, and thank you for posting!

  • Extremely slow printing 8620c

    I have purchased an Officejet pro 8620 a month ago and experiencing extremely slow printing ( 5 minutes per page).
    I am using a Macbook air with wireless connection. The HP Officejet is also connected via wifi.
    I have reinstalled the printer. I am using the normal printquality setting.
    Who can help me? 

    Hello @MartijnAmsterda , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you're having issues with slow printing.  I would like to help!
    I have a couple of questions that will help get to the bottom of this.
    - If you make a copy through the feeder or glass, does it come out slow?
    - What version of the Mac operating system are you using?
    - Do you have any other devices on the network that connect to the printer?
    I'd recommend powering down your Mac, and performing a power reset on the printer.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then remove the power from your router.  Wait 60 seconds. 
    After 60 seconds, plug the router in, let it start up, and begin broadcasting.  Once it has begun broadcasting, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet.
    Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.  Once the printer is up, power on the Mac, and try to print. 
    Please keep me posted.  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Extremely slow performance with Radeon HD 7870

    Hi,
    I am using a number of Adobe programs on my new Windows 8 64 bit system, with 16 gigs of ram, an Intel Core i5 2.67ghz, and AMD Radeon HD 7870 2 gig. All the programs (including After Effects and Illustrator) work very well with the exception of Photoshop CS6 64 bit, which has extremely slow performance with Use Graphics Processor enabled in my preferences (which Photoshop selects by default). If I turn off Use Graphics Processor, the slow performance vanishes. If I change Drawing Mode to Basic, there might be a slightly detectable improvement over Normal and Advanced, but it's still horribly slow. The refresh rate seems to be just a few frames per second. Everything is slow: brushes, zooming, panning, everything.
    I've tried changing the settings I've seen suggested elsewhere: I switched Cache levels to 2, history states to 10, and tile size to 128k. No effect. Photoshop is currently at the default of using 60% of available ram. Efficiency has remained at 100% throughout all my tests. Also, this slow performance has affected me from the moment I installed Photoshop; it didn't crop up after previous good performance. The problem exists regardless of the size or number of documents I have open. Performance is still terrible even when I create a 500 x 500 pixel blank new canvas and try a simple task like drawing with the brush.
    Photoshop is fully up to date, and so are my graphics drivers (Catalyst version 13.1). Any help would be greatly appreciated; at the moment performance is so bad in Photoshop that it's unusable with graphics acceleration enabled. Thanks in advance for replying.

    Great news!
    I followed your suggestion, Noel, and uninstalled my drivers with the Catalyst Uninstall Utility (which I hadn't used before), rebooted, reinstalled Catalyst 13.2 Beta 7, rebooted, deleted the PS Prefs, started PS, and now the performance is radically improved!
    It baffles me why I would need to do a clean driver uninstall in a new system environment that has only ever had this video card, and is only a few months old, but that action seems to be what's improved the situation. Note that because I deleted the PS preferences, the good performance now occurs with the default Use Graphics Processor enabled, and Drawing Mode set to Advanced (with every feature in the Advanced dialog checked except 30bit display).
    Having no reference point, I can't tell for sure if performance is as good as it theoretically ought to be for my system specs, but using the standard 13px brush is only slightly laggy behind the cursor, even if I become reckless and squiggle on the canvas violently. It wasn't just sluggish response before: Photoshop seemed to be in pain trying to draw the line segments as it laboured to catch up to the cursor. That is pretty much gone now.
    Much more tellingly, zooming and panning the canvas is like it ought to be, responsive and clean, more or less like it was for me in CS4 with my old Nvidia 9600GT. The poor performance with zooming and panning was the most worrying aspect of the issue. It's a great relief to see these working more properly now.
    I have to confess I'm a little embarrassed to have drug you through all this hassle only to discover that something as rudimentary as properly cleaning out the drivers would be the apparent solution. I never would have imagined that doing that, with such a new and stable system, would make any difference, since I don't have a legacy of older drivers dotting my hard drive. In any event, I'm really grateful that you guys took the time to try to help me.
    In the interest of completeness, here's the relevant portion of my system info after doing the reinstall steps I mentioned above:

    Video Card Caption: Microsoft Basic Render Driver
    Video Card Memory: 0 MB
    As you can see, the Microsoft Basic Render Driver still appears as a Video Card in the list. This presumably has something to do with Windows 8, and I really don't know if its presence here is still a sign that my card is not being used to its optimal capability. I have a hunch that the slight lag that I am still experiencing with the brush when Use Graphics Processor is on -- totally absent with the acceleration turned off -- implies that Photoshop is still unable to take maximum advantage of my card. I would assume that the brush tool should be more responsive with acceleration on than off, in a rig without any issues, but that's just assumption on my part. If you turn off Use Graphics Processor on your systems, is the brush tool more or less responsive?
    But again, panning the canvas with the hand tool is now extremely responsive, without any screen tearing or visible lag, and that's a massive improvement over the total meltdown of performance I was suffering from before.
    Thanks again very much for your help. I'm grateful to all of you who took the time to chime in.

  • I cannot select the Paper Size when I try to print with HP Photosmart B110a with Windows 8.1 64bit

    I cannot select the Paper Size when I try to print with HP Photosmart B110a
    The same printer was working OK with my old PC with OS Windows 7
    However I got a new PC with OS Windows 8.1 64bit
    I installed the new driver for HP Photosmart B110a that I dowloaded from HP site. Driver forWindows 8.1 64bit.
    In addition to not being able to chose the paper size, also when I go to Printer Properties in Options, all the characters are non-ascii.
    Do you know what may be the problem?
    Thank you

    Hello Nanu64,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having some issues when attempting to print from your computer.
    I also see that you stated that not all the options are available in the printing preferences options.  This could be because the installation was not complete or it failed.
    I suggest that we do a complete uninstall/ reinstall as well as some additional steps.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    If you have the printer connected to the computer with a usb cable, please remove the cable from both ends and leave it disconnected until further notice.
    The next link that I have for you will give you detailed instructions for Uninstalling the Printer Software.  Once the uninstall is complete, reboot the computer so that the changes take affect.
    When the computer is back up and running, please disable any firewalls or anti virus protection you may have running. We don't want anything getting in the way of the reinstall.
    The following download is the HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers.  Save this download to the desktop of the computer so that it creates its own icon.  This will make it easy for us to find when the download is complete.
    Double click the new icon and follow the installation instructions.  The installation will give you connection options (Wireless , usb or Ethernet), if connecting usb, please wait for the prompt to connect the cable.  Connecting the usb cable before hand can cause an issue with the installation.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.
    Cheers,  
    Click the “Kudos Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post to say “Thanks” for helping!

  • Acrobat 8.1.2 Pro: Extremely slow printing

    Whenever Acrobat Pro (8.1.2 on OSX 10.4.11) is used to print, pages print extremely slow, up to 5 minutes or more per page. When printing documents, bigger dan 100 pages, in several hours it will print, but contributes a zero kb file to the print queue. My only solution so far is to use the free acrobat reader for printing purposes, which prints the same document flawlessly in minutes...
    Anybody have the same issues and/or better solutions?
    Thanks in advance

    I think this is a problem related to 8.1.2.
    We're on Windows XP SP2 on very new PCs with no printer driver changes. The Reader version is now 8.1.2, and a simple, black and white 1 bit PDF file that took a few seconds to print before, now takes minutes to even send to the printer after the upgrade. (The last workstation that upgraded this morning is now complaining of the exact same issue.) I've even tried removing my SOPHOS anti-virus to see if that's the issue - no change in Reader's print performance. All other applications print fine. I can't seem to troubleshoot the problem, but I believe it's something Adobe changed in 8.1.2. Maybe it's time to seriously try an alternative reader...

  • OSX 10.6.8 issues with hp photosmart D110

    I used to be able to print and scan from my iMac  running 10.6.8  to the hp photosmart d110. Now, it doesn't show up as a bonjour device. When I ping it, I get access denied. Still air prints from iPhone and iPad. Works with win 7 machine. Any ideas why this happened?solutions appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hello Broleen,
    Thanks for the post.  With this one, have you changed/replaced routers recently?  Moved it to another location?  Since you can Airprint sucessfully, I don't suspect it is a hardware wireless radio issue.  I might suggest taking a look at this document below, there are some excellent t-shooting steps to help resolve wireless related issues.  Good Luck!

  • Slow Printing with Adobe Reader 8.1.2 on Terminal Service

    When I want to print something on a Terminal Server without admin rights its very slow, when I print with admin rights its fast. Can someone told me where is the problem with the rights?
    Thanks

    It could be that the Printer Setting has been set to ensure that the Duplex Printing would no longer be applied and its overriding the Printer Dialog settings.
    You could check the Printer setting to ensure that duplex printing is enabled.

  • MacBook Pro running extremely slow- something with RAM maybe?

    I'm using a MacBook Pro, and yesterday, out of nowhere it stated running extremely slow and constantly freezes. I did some research and ended up looking in the Activity Monitor, and it seemed like I have no free space available - so I deleted a bunch of files and the computer is still running exactly as slow as it was before. My stats on the activity monitor are:
    Free: 9.7 MB
    Wired: 851.7 MB
    Active: 2.11 GB
    Inactive: 1.05 GB
    Used: 3.99 GB
    VM Size: 162.33 GB
    Page ins: 541.0 MB
    Page outs: 4.02 GB
    Swap Used: 10.41 GB
    Finder says I have 317.3 GB available. What's the problem here?

    Safe mode prevents almost all third-party software from running such as preference panes, plug-ins, extensions, and launchagents and launch daemons. Normal boot lets all that run. So the issue is with one or more of these third-party items. Perhaps you can download EtreCheck 1.9.10 and run it when your system is at it's worst state. Then post the results here for us to check.
    Also,
    Pre-Mavericks
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Mavericks and later
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the View menu.  Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar.

    ''' "The HP Smart Web Printing application is not supported in the Firefox web browser." '''
    Misleading statement, like a lawyer wrote it - HP Smart Web Printing doesn't support Firefox. For some reason HP hasn't kept up with new versions of Firefox after the 3.5 version, and prior to that version the update to SWP for Firefox 3.0 and 3.5 came many months after those versions were released.
    As far as the slow printing in Firefox, see if anything here helps you. <br />
