Print speed slower with nodialog

We have an unusual issue with printing speed with Adobe forms when printing with
the nodialog flag turned on.
Most of our user interfaces do a normal print preview to the screen and then the user
selects the print button to print to a destination printer.
We have one requirement where we turn off the dialog flags, set the copies to 2 or 3, and then
have it go to a local printer LOCL. When we print this way it takes roughly 10 seconds per
page. However, printing from the dialog takes roughly one second per page.
Maybe there is something glaring that someone can show me what we are doing wrong...
    fp_outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.
    fp_outputparams-device = 'PRINTER'.
    fp_outputparams-connection = 'ADS'.
    fp_outputparams-dest = 'LOCL'.
    fp_outputparams-reqimm = 'X'.
    fp_outputparams-dataset = 'PBFORM'.
    fp_outputparams-lifetime = 8.
    fp_outputparams-pdltype = 'PCL'.
    fp_outputparams-xdcname = 'hppcl5e.xdc'.
    fp_outputparams-arcmode = '1'.
    fp_outputparams-preview = ' '.
Please let me know what we are doing wrong.. I would deeply appreciate it. We use this method to print invoices.
Sometimes 5000 at a time. At 10 seconds a page. Its brutal.

Hello,
are the files generated slowly or they are printed slowly?
Can you check the files in the spool? Are they appearing slowly?
Best regards,

  • HP LaserJet P1006 Print very slow with Windows 8.1

    I have an HP LaserJet 1006 that is installed on Toshiba Laptop running Windows 8.1 and was working fine even from time to time it stop working at all, then I have to remove the software and then reinstall it again and then it works fine, last time I downloaded the Windows 8.1 Driver for the printer.
    But this time, first I tried to remove the software but it didn't work; the printer still show up on the control panel - Devices and Printers. then some how I was able to reinstall the software , after that the printer is working but printing very slow even it is a LaserJet printer.
    Please any one can help with that?
    Thanks;

    Hey @wmowafi,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you're experiencing a slow printing issue on Windows 8.1 when printing to your HP Laserjet P1006 Printer. I would like to work with you today at resolving this issue. Now the only driver available for your product on Windows 8.1 is a hostbased plug and play basic generic driver. Therefore, there is limitations for what can be done for troubleshooting. As you stated, you have already attempted an uninstalled and reinstalled of the driver to no avail. I'm going to suggest some further steps and tools to resolve this issue for you.
    Step 1: Uninstall Your Printer:
    Disconnect your USB cable
    Click the following link: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled to access the Microsoft Uninstall Tool.
    Once the website opens, select Run Now on the right hand side
    Allow the Tool to run.
    When prompted choose Uninstall
    A list of programs should populate and you're looking for the Laserjet. It may appear as LJ P1000 series. Please select the Laserjet series and Uninstall it.
    If the Laserjet doesn't show in the list of programs than your Windows 8.1 computer does not see the Laserjet driver as properly installed.
    Step 2: Clear the Temp Files:
    Launch your Start screen by right clicking on the Windows icon on the bottom left of your screen or by select the Windows button on your keyboard located to the right of the Ctrl button.
    Once the Start screen launches, type the word Run
    Click on Run to launch it
    In the Run box type %temp% and select OK
    Once the Temp folder opens, hold down Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard and everything will highlight in the folder. Select 'Delete' on your keyboard. Don't worry, no files or folders on your actual computer will be removed during this process. If a file is still be used on your computer you will get a pop up to 'skip' the file
    Once the Temp folder is emptied of its files, close the window
    On your Desktop, right click on the Recycling Bin and left click on 'Empty Recycling Bin'
    Restart you computer
    Step 3: Reinstall the Laserjet P1006:
    Please keep your USB cable disconnected
    Click on the following link: HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver
    The driver page for your product will now launch
    Select Download and allow the download to Run
    Once the download is complete an extraction will automatically run and once completed the installer will launch
    Run through the step-by-step on screen instructions.
    Please do not plug in your USB cable until prompted
    Ensure that your USB cable is plugged in from the rear of the printer directly to the computer. Avoid extenders or docking stations as they can cause printing and communication issues.
    Test printing!
    Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your issue. Good luck!

  • Rip speed slower with imacg5 versuz emacg4

    Hi there,
    Can anyone explain why an emac G4 1,25 chz.1G ram OSX 10.3.9 rips an audio cd in itunes 6.0 TWICE the speed than a brand new Imac isight G5 1G ram 20inch OSX 10.4.3 in itunes 6.0.1.??? I allready caled the aplle care support and tried some testing no results , I went to the aplle center and tested on their Imac isight G5 1G ram 20inch same speed as mine. Do i have a SUPER emac or is the new imac just slower???

    Hi SJP. The DL superdrive in the iMac G5 iSight reads CD's at 24x.
    The single layer superdrive in the eMacs read CD's at 32x.
    THis seems to be the price we pay for having a dual layer slot loading drive.
    If its any consolation the iMac superdrive WRITES at 24x, though, whereas the eMac superdrive only wrote at 16x (or, at least, this was the case with the last model that I could find specs for).
    When I bought my Pb12 a couple of years back, one of the reasons that I opted for a combo drive over a superdrive for an internal burner was its far better performance with CD's. I think a case can still be made for getting an external FW burner for frequent use with Superdrive equipt iMacs and the like. They are usually significantly faster for both CD and DVD work.
    Cheers

  • HP 990c prints incredibly slow with mac (SL)

    I just moved my wife from windows to mac and now her printer .. HP 990c .. prints at about a quarter of the speed per page as it did on her old windows machine.
    Is there a setting or printer driver other than the one with OS X?
    thanks

    Solution that works for me!
    I found the same thing with my Lexmark T520 printer. Previously, the print command sent a Word or other text document to my printer almost immediately. Under 10.6.2 I found that it took over a minute and a half to send the job to the printer.
    I called Lexmark today and they gave me the solution. It might work for you too.
    Go into System Preferences, select print and fax, select your printer, and click on the minus sign to delete your printer from the list of installed printers. First, make sure that you have the printer driver so you can reinstall. It's most likely in your system, but I don't want you to follow my advice and then not be able to reinstall.
    Then click on the plus sign. Your printer should show up in the list. Select it. When you add your printer from the list, you'll see a drop-down menu which says "Print using." That's the key. My default was selected for my printer name. Instead choose "Generic Postscript." When I went back to printing I still had all the options of my printer available and the print times are now as speedy as they were before I upgraded to Snow Leopard.
    Good luck!

  • HT1338 epson 545 prints very slow with airport

    Epson 545 does not show in airport utility, but will print very slowly. 

    I would try this:
    Do a factory reset on your printer (check the manual for how)
    Go to system preferences > Printers and Scannerscontrol click on your printer in the column on the left, and select Reset Print system..., and reset in the next dialog
    Delete all other Epson applications and Epson printer utilities.
    power down everything: modem, router, computer, and printer.
    restart the modem and let it power up completely
    restart the router and let it power up completely
    restart the computer and let it power up completely
    restart the printer. Enter your wifi password in the printer to connect it to the network.
    go back to printers and scanners. It should see the printer and install the print driver.
    resist the temptation to use any other Epson software

  • Start to print and then it prints really slow or stops all together. Desktop computer "Compac"

    My printer is an HP DESKJET3050A ALL-IN-ONE J611 SERIES.  Operating system installed is Windows XP  No i have not made any changes

    It sounds like the printer is not getting enough power or there may be a faulty ink cartridge.
    To confirm if it is isolated to the printer or somewhere else, try copying a page to see if it is printing slow from a copy.
    Is the printer connected to a surge protector?  If so, try connecting the printer directly to a wall outlet.  Did this help?
    The next step is to look at the ink cartridges.  An easy test to see if the cartridges may be at fault is to try printing a text only document with the black ink cartridge removed.  
    Did it still print slow? It will still be slow since it will be mixing the colors to make black, but it should be faster than it was before if a faulty cartridge was at fault.
    If it still print really slow with the black cartridge removed, try putting the black back in and removing the color cartridge.  Did it still print slow?
    Let me know what happens.

  • Dell 3100cn printing at slow speed only

    I have a Dell 3100cn from about 3 years ago and a new MBP with OS X Leopard. On my previous MBP with Tiger i was able to go into the printer settings and select only black and white printing, which greatly increased the print speed (around 25ppm I think). Now that i have Leopard, I can't find a setting to switch the printer between colour and B&W, so it always prints as though the document is colour even when the document is just a B&W image or text, which really slows it down (around 5 ppm). I haven't installed any Dell drivers. The forums seem to say there aren't any or something. Are there drivers that will help me?

    update your power manager software and see whether that helps.

  • Internet speed is slow with Mountain Lion 10.8.2

    Internet speed is slow with Mountain Lion 10.8.2, but booting in separate drive running 10.6 is fine. Tried renewing DHCP, zapped the PRAM, ran disk utilities, and sudo chron.  No change. I am running 2008 Mac Pro, 8 gig ram, AT&T DSL via ethernet. Getting 0.15Mbps instead of 3Mbps.

    Did you try creating a new location and deleting the old one? Just renewing the DCHP on its own may not be enough. Follow all the instructions here, first:

  • Printing from web pages is excruciatingly slow with most recent upgrades of Firefox .Use an iMac and an HP officejet printer. Printer works fine with Safari and woodprocessed files, but not with Firefox and web pages.

    Printing from web pages is excruciatingly slow since downloading most recent upgrades of Firefox Mozilla. I have a desktop iMac, OS 10.6.8, and an HP officejet printer 4500 G510n. The printer works fine with the Safari Browser and with woodprocessed files, but not with Firefox and web pages. Help please! It used to print fast with earlier versions of Firefox.

    Hello and welcome to the Apple Discussions Forum.
    I have hardly any experience with HP printers but since your posting has not been replied to yet I thought I'd offer some assistance.
    With the printer status and ink levels working, it shows that you have a connection to the printer. So I would look at the issue being with the protocol being used for the print queue on the Mac.
    Since you have XP and Vista working, I would check the printer queue configuration on either box. In XP, go to the Properties and select Ports. Click the Configure Port tab to view the connection. If you are using RAW, then this is known as HP Jetdirect-Socket on OS X. So if you are not sure what protocol was used before I would create another printer queue, this time selecting IP > HP Jetdirect-Socket. Then enter your IP address and select the K5400dn from the Print Using menu.
    If this still fails to print then please reply. There may be limitations with adding the HP driver this way that I am not aware of. There may also be other driver options you can look at, such as HPIJS. If Greg Sahli reads this posting he has expert knowledge on this matter and will be able to offer some guidance.

  • HP LaserJet P1102w prints EXTREMELY slow over Wi-Fi

    I've been struggling with this problem for a long time, but today this totally freaked me out. I was ready to throw away this piece of ..printer! Problem is simple. When I'm trying to print wirelessly something with graphics (jpeg pictures or photos) from my iPhone, iPad iOS 8.4 or MacBook OS X 10.10 Yosemite, it takes forever! Word document, PDF, from Preview or other programs - same result! I just couldn't pring 9 page document today, after 20 minutes I gave up. What's happening. Let's say I'm using mac. Print task goes to printer queue, as usual. After that, this task shows in queue as "connecting to printer", green light starts blinking on printer, as usual. This is taking a minute or two, that's what unusual. After that, "starting printing page 1". It can take 1, 2, 3 minutes... forever! Next, either ONE page actually prints (for 5-7 minute mark at this point) and it takes same time to print page two and so on, or (likely) it will spit out unfinished page (only couple of inches printed and the rest of the page is blank) and show an error, orange light blinking. UGH!!! I gave up on iPhone/iPad long time ago, since they can't show print queue and therefore it's unpredictable result. You can wait 10 minutes for your document, then leave, and later on just find the document printed when you no longer need it (or half of the document). I do not have this problem when printing just text, emails, simple confirmation pages from safari and so on. Only when printing document with graphics or heavy pdf. I do not have this problem when connecting printer via USB (discovered this today). Now what really bugs me, it's the fact that I was actually able to print heavy PDF from Windows machine with no problem, wirelessly (I did have problem printing exact same document from my mac). WHAT IS GOING ON?! I've googled this problem and found that I'm not alone. I've updated all software and firmware, I've tried to reset everything - NO DICE! This is really very frustrating. I was thinking this is because of small memory of the printer, but why it works perfectly via USB then? Anyway, this is a cry from the heart. Please help. The printer is good, but unusabe in some situations.

    Hello ! Welcome to the HP Community.I hope you have a pleasant experience here! I'd like to help you with the slow printing that you are experiencing when printing images to your HP LaserJet P1102w wirelessly from your Apple devices. Thank you so much for the detailed description. Since the printer is able to print fine wirelessly from the windows machine, we know that the issue is not with the printer or the communication. The fact that none of the Apple devices are able to print images wirelessly without it being really slow, leads me to beleive it may be an Issue with the AirPrint driver or Bonjour protocol that your Apple devices use to communicate the information. Picture files are much larger, and a lot more data needs to be transmitted, so it is normal for them to take longer to print than a regular text document. However, if there is a marked difference in speed between the Windows computer and the Apple devices, then the issue is likely not just that the files are larger. I'd like to get you to make sure the printer is installed with the correct driver on your Mac. (Because there is no full feature HP software available for Mac 10.10 the operating system will often default to the AirPrint driver) Click the Apple icon on your Menu Bar.Select System Preferences.Select Printers and Scanners.Select your printer and then press the (-) button at the bottom of the list to remove it.Select the (+) and click Add Printers and Scanners. (NOTE: Do not select the printer from the list of Nearby printers as this will often automatically use the AirPrint driver)Select your printer (the one that shows Bonjour Multifunction under "Kind").At the bottom of the window under Use: does it say AirPrint? If so, click the drop down and you should see a specific driver for the printer. Click Add.Try printing an image again, and let me know the result.If this works to resolve the issue, then I would suggest downloading the HP ePrint app on your iPhone and iPad to print. It may be an incompatibilty issue between the AirPrint on your Apple devices and your router. I look forward to hearing back from you, and working towards a resolution for this issue.

  • Laserjet CM1415fnw - wireless printing extremely slow

    Hello,
    I've got my new CM1415fnw, set up wireless following instructions and installed OSX drivers on my Macbook. Printer is visible and manageable via HP utility, test page is printing extremely fast.
    The problem is, everything EXCEPT a test page is printing HIDEOUSLY slow - like 5 to 7 minutes after you sent anything to print, the printer finaly starts printing it... And if you're printing a multi-page document, it actually takes 5 to seven minutes for EVERY page to start printing!
    Obviously, something must be very wrong with this shiny new printer printing at cool speed of 8-10 pages PER HOUR, where my old Photosmart C7100 was happily printing about the same number of pages per minute? All wireless setting are the same in both cases, and as I already mentioned printer is visible and accessible, and test page prints blazingly fast. It's just that except for test page printing this device is pretty much useless at the moment...
    Are there any hints or something I should check to identify the problem? As I'm mentioned, I'm under OSX, so Windows-based HP diagnostic tools are not much help...

    Hello I just bought this printer a few days ago and set it up and have noticed the same problems with extremely slow network printing through the wireless. I have a 70 meg down fast internet connection & a Belkin 450n db wireless router. When I print photos it takes almost a half an hour for the photos to come through the network and print, which seems very strange for an office LaserJet to be considered normal output. I've also look into purchasing an auto duplex accessory and extra RAM but have sadly found out that neither are an option for this model. First off I have to say shame on you HP for not offering loyal customers the option for auto duplexing and RAM upgrading. Second the print speeds on this thing are absolutely atrocious! Third, your outsourcing of customer support or tech support overseas absolutely sucks. I called up tech support and was transferred immediately to the Philippines. The wrong department received my call and then transferred me to India. I spoke with somebody who had a terrible accent and the call quality was bad on top of that so half an hour went by and he really couldn't help me with my slow network printing issues. On top of that I asked him if although duplexing an extra RAM were accessories I could purchase for this model and he couldn't figure that out he didn't have an answer. So now that I finished ranting , can anybody help me with this or is this the way this thing was made to be, slow as can be?

  • Canon MX870 prints incredibly slow via WIFI

    I have an MX870 with an iMac quad core running OSX 10.6 and a netgear router.  I don't use a USB cable because the run would exceed 15' because of the way the furniture is layed out where the computer and printer are, and the USB cable is too long to power the connection.  This has happened with every printer I've used.  However, the printer/computer and router are all physically within about 6 feet of each other at most (I'm just trying to avoid running a USB cable directly across the carpet in the middle of the living room).  So I use the wireless printing option.  However, even when i have a document that is composed of nothing more than 1 black and white sentence and nothing else on the page, or a envelope that I'm putting nothing more on than an address, it always takes between 2-3 minutes from the time I hit print, to the time the paper comes out of the printer.  Even with wireless printing, this can't be right.  There has to be some way of speeding up the process.  Any suggestions would be welcome.  Thanks

    Yes, I've installed the CD completely and no this isn't the first or second time I've used the printer and had this issue. I've had the printer a few months and always had this slow printing problem. If I'm literally printing one white page that has only one word typed on it, it takes 2-3 minutes from the time I hit print until the time it comes out.
    Now, I am usually turning the printer on when this happens. But even if I leave it on, I have the same delay with subsequent prints I try while it's till on.
    As you watch the printer LED display, it appears it's taking a while to receive the info from the computer/router. I hit print, see the LED change from idle to processing, and it stays in processing for a whiile. Once it begins to actually print, that usually goes at a normal speed.

  • Acrobat XI printing very slow

    Hi,
    Just upgraded to Acrobat XI v11.0.0.379 from v9 on a Windows 7 x64 system. I find the printing very slow compared to v9. I have a single page text PDF that I print regularly. Under v9, it takes 7-10 seconds to start the print. Under XI, it takes 6-7 minutes to print the same document. Anyone know why this is happening? BTW, I discovered if I set it to "print as image", it will print at about the same speed as v9.
    Thanks for any help.
