Officejet 7780 slow printing

I have an Officejet 7780 on a wired network with 3 PC's. Printing is exceptionally slow (minutes to print a page of normal type). Any ideas?

Let's try to set a static IP for the printer and configure its DNS reference:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you know what that is, set an IP outside that range but no higher than 254 (the last number in the address). If you do not know this, enter the current IP address.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Leave the gateway and DNS blank. Click 'Apply
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

Officejet 6110 slow printing

My really old (8 years) 6110 All In One has been working well until about two days ago. It started printing very slow, about 5-10 min. per page. It prints at this speed in all modes. It even prints slow on a test page from the printer menu. I have read in the forum that a bad print cartridge can cause this problem. When I turned on the printer this evening, there was an error code that says "remove and check print cartridge". I cleaned the cartridge contacts, but nothing changed. I have no spare cartridges to change out. I can't clear the error code to try a test page. I tried all the tips that I found on the forum, but no luck. Are there any other tricks that I can try? A new set of cartridges will cost me about $60.00. I can buy a new 6500A for $80.00, or an 8500 for $ 110.00. Is it worth wasting any more time on this, or is it time to replace the old printer?
Thanks, BFK

This is caused by the failure of one of your cartridges. I do not recall if the Officejet 6110 will print in reserve mode, but try the following: Remove the black cartridge and print a test page. Does the printer print at normal speed? Is so the black cartridge was the issue and should be replaced. If not then put the black cartridge back in and remove the color cartridge and print test page. If the printer now prints normal speed the color cartridge was at fault and needs to be replaced.
Do you print a lot? The 6500 and 8500 have a separate ink supply and printhead. They are most suitable for frequent printing. If you only print occasionally the Officejet 6110 may be a better choice since it has less overhead for servicing.
If the printer will not print with one cartridge removed then I would replace the black cartridge with a #27, available for $20. If this does not resolve the issue you could try the color #28 cartridge, about $26.

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!

HP Officejet Pro 8000 Printer series - A809 Slow Response to Word Print

Hello,
When I try to print from a Word Document the HP Officejet Pro 8000 Printer series - A809 Printer takes on average 1:24 to respond and print. When I go into the printer's settings and print a test page the Printer takes about 3 seconds to respond and print the document. The Printer has a Dual Side Printing add on and the optional paper tray.
Do you know what could cause such a long delay for the printer, especially when it only happens with word and other Microsoft Works Programs?

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.

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!

Hp laserjet M1530dnf MPF slow printing

The technical specification for this printer is a print speed of 26 ppm. Last night I attempted to print a 31 page PDF file. It printed nine pages in 22 minutes before I cancelled the print job. I have an HP Deskjet 6600 for color printing. I sent the same file, set for B&W, to that printer. It completed printing all 31 pages in less than six minutes. Both printers use a wireless connection. Printer drivers for both were updated on 12 Apr 15. All Microsoft updaters have been applied. The 6600 is about three years old. I've had the M1530dnf Laserjet for about 45 days. This is just the most egregious example of the Lasterjet's abominably slow printing. Even a five page Word document can take between 3-to-5 minutes. The device manager reports the printer is working properly, but that is obviously not the case.
Any thoughts on where to go next are appreciated. The printer is still under warrenty, so I can take the problem back to HP. If thast's my option, does anyone have as good phone number to use? I used the number on the support web site and went through three people and over half-hour on hold only to get disconnected. I'd like to streamline that process by contacting the right person on the first call.

As it turned out, the problem was traced to a needed firm ware update. HP did a remote control section, had the problem isolated very quickly, performed the correction, and all within a half-hour the printer was back where it should be,

My hp officejet 100 mobile printer was working fine with my dell XPS 15 in bluetooth wirelessly until my laptop crashed. Now I can not get it to print internet info except with hard wire connection.

Must shut down laptop and shut off printer or hard wire and shut off bluetooth. down loaded lastest drivers to no avail. printer will print from cell phone and win 8 computer via bluetooth but not win 7 laptop.

Sorry you are having problems with printing from the internet. I have a few more questions to ask you before I can be of much assistance.
What web-browser are you using?
Do you have any problems printing from Word or other non-internet documents?
What did you do to fix your computer (system restore, clean install of the OS, etc)?
Have you tried an alternate web-browser?
Make sure to install all of your Microsoft updates to see if that helps. Otherwise, answer those questions for me please and I will be happy to help.

Hp officejet Pro 8100 Printer Tray

I have an HP Officejet Pro 8100 printer. I removed the paper tray this morning to load paper and now I can't get it to slide back in all the way. It stops about 4 inches short of closing. I feel like an idiot! How can I have problems sliding a drawer in? Are there any clips etc. that I should have in place, etc. that might have come off?
This question was solved.

Hi,
You might try lifting the front of the printer to see if anything is obstructing from your desk. It should slide right back in.

I want to print directly from my iPad to a HP Officejet J6480 wireless printer. Do I need an app for this or can I do it without and if so, how?

I am a new iPad (wi fi version) owner but not the new iPad 2. I have a home wireless network and have a HP Officejet J6480 wireless printer. I print from my iMac and Powerbook directly using the wireless network and want to print directly from my iPad also. Do I need a special app for this or can I do this with something already "built-in" to the operating system of the iPad.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you're comfortable going 'under the hood', this thread originally started in November 2010 contains a minor tweak to OS X that might work for you:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2658720?threadID=2658720&tstart=0
It allows devices on iOS 4.2 or newer to print to shared wired and wireless printers as long as the Mac is on and awake.

How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)

How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work (on prior iPhones) before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)
I don't get it, I read one post about why would we have to buy an AirPrint Printer when we have used the "print to a wifi printer" just fine in the past? Yes I feel that's exactly what's happening to me now too. I want to print from my iPhone and iPad to my WiFi Printer which is also now connected to my Airport Express WiFi network just fine. No problems.

Very glad you added that bit of information because I see different problems similar to this. I want to share with them what you did and hopefully you not only fixed your specific problem but you can lend some more advice to others with problems like this. Thanks!
