Why would my printer print so slow?cc=uk

For the past three months, my HP officejet 4215v started printing very slow, but not on all documents. To day I uninstalled the driver and software and reinstalled, but I am still having the problem. This is getting very frustrating, can someone advise me on what I need to do to correct this issue?

Hi there,
Could you provide the community with a little more information to help narrow troubleshooting? What operating system are we using?

  • Why would a commercial printer ask for Illustrator native files instead of InDesign files?

    Why would a commercial printer ask for Illustrator native files instead of InDesign files?
    For example, We create 32 hang tags for the same brand. Each hang tag looks identical except for a color bar calling out the different fits. We set the files up in InDesign with a Master Page congaing all the similar artwork. This process saves us a lot of time when making changes to the entire package of hang tags. So my question is... why can't the printer use InDesign. They are saying they convert our InDesign files to Illustrator before printing.

    A printer who insists on native files but can't take InDesign is not properly equipped. It suggests they haven't updated their capabilities in 15 years.

  • HT1338 why would the internet be so slow?

    The internet is running slow on the computer....not opening as quickly and won't stream any media when I need to what could be slowing it down and is there a way to fix it? I haven't had the computer for that long.

    In the Sustem/Network/Advanced/DNS preference pane check to see what DNS servers you're using.  If it's not one of the two below delete those that are there and add both of the two below.  See if that improves performance.  Note what servers were there in case you want to go back to them.

  • Why Would My Mac Suddenly Run Slow?

    For two days now my Mac is just "crawling." I haven't added anything.
    Everything was OK before about 2 days ago.
    Is this common? Is it a temporary issue? I hope so.

    See:

  • Why Would Crystal Reports read more than it prints

    Hi everyone,
    In my case My record selection is based on the following:
    {FACILITY}=1
    And {payment_code} In ["110","111","112","115","116","117"]
    And {service_code} = "COPAY"
    And {date_of_receipt} in [{?From Date} to {?To Date}]
    And yet for any parameter selection set crystal reports would read - say - 1000 records but prints only 25 records, the question is if the records found according to the selected values from parameter and the record selection formula, is only 25 records, then why would it read 1000 records? what is the reason? and how to avoid it?
    Thanks in advance!

    It may also be what the numbers are telling you is the filter (WHERE) cannot be pushed down to the Server so CR has to filter it client side on the second pass.
    Likely due to the data range, quite often the date format is not compliant to the Server so CR has to "interpret" the date format so it ends up filtering client side.
    Try commenting out that part of the selection formula and see if you get the same number of records read. If you do then you could try using a SQL Express to convert the date fields or possibly using a Command and Command Parameter to set the date range may work for you. This way the DB is definitely getting the date formatted for it's server side use.

  • Why can't I print a playlist of 24 songs with this newer version that will fit on a case, as I was able to do with the older version?

    With the older version I was able to print a playlist of 24 songs that would fit on a case.  The print was single-spaced on the older version, but on this version, the print is double spaced and it no longer fits on a case.  Does anyone have an answer?

    No other solution at this time. Are you using iPad or iPhone?
    iPad - I can understand why you ask. It's too bad you can't sync PDF playlist. Right now the only way is to use Sugarsync. From there you can "Open PDF in iBooks". Or you can use Goodreader.
    iPhone - Why would you want to use iTunes and iBooks? Although iBooks is well designed and handles PDF very well even on iPhone, it doesn't have text-reflow feature which makes PDF reading useless on iPhone unless you want to loose your eye sight soon. So the only way is to sync a folder using Sugarsync.  You can access Sugarsync from Goodreader.

    why can't I print a pdf file, it's asking for a password and I have no idea what it is it never asked for one before?

    Good afternoon SaraThanks for responding. Yes, I have been able to open these files before without a password. Funny thing is it is happening on both my husband's laptop as well as mine. I'd appreciate any help you could give me but the file is very personal. So, if you can assist in a way that won't compromise the security I would be grateful for your help.Thanks and have a great day!Kim Morse

  • Why won't my printer print with Windows 8?

    Why won’t my printer print with Windows 8?
    Have you just upgraded, or purchased a new computer with Windows 8, and now you can’t get your printer to work?  If so, this may help you.  A lot of people have questions about installing their printer on a new OS.  This will help you answer those questions and make sure that you get everything installed. 
    Before You Start
    Before you try to install the printer on a Windows 8 computer, you should check to make sure the printer is compatible with the new OS.  The link below will give you a list of the printers that will work in Windows 8.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03168175&lc=en&cc=us&destPage=document&dlc=en
    If you have upgraded your computer to Windows 8 form another version of Windows, make sure to completely uninstall all of the software for your printer.  It should still print, but to use all the functions you will need to reinstall the software, if it’s available.
    Another thing to consider is how you want to connect the printer to the computer. 
    USB.  You should make sure that you have a USB cable that is no longer than 6 ft. (roughly 2m).  Make sure to connect the printer directly to the computer.  Do not use a USB hub. 
    Ethernet cable.  Make sure you have the network setup, that you have a free cable port on the router, and that you have an Ethernet cable available.
    Wireless.  You should make sure that you have the wireless network setup, and that you have the password for the wireless network. 
     1.     Installing Via USB
    Installing via USB in Windows 8 has become much simpler for HP printer users.  In other versions of the Windows OS you had to start the installation and wait for it to ask you for the USB connection.  If you didn’t, you would have to uninstall the printer from the Printers/Devices folder, and then start the install.  In Windows 8, that will not be a problem.  If you plug the printer’s USB cable in and then install the printer’s software, it will still work.  Now for in depth instructions on installing the printer via USB click the link below.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03460670&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
    2.     Installing Via an Ethernet Network Connection
    For an Ethernet network connected printer the install is amazingly simple.  All you have to do is connect the printer to the network.  Once you have that done, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if it’s available.  It’s really that easy.
    http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
    3.     Installing Via a Wireless Network Connection.
    For a wireless network connected printer the install is amazingly simple as well.  All you have to do is connect the printer to the network.  Once you have that done, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if it’s available.  It’s pretty much the same as an Ethernet install, just wireless.
    http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
    Alternate Install Methods
    With Windows 8, many printers’ drivers are installed with the OS.  These are known as InOS drivers, since they come built into the operating system.  If you have one of those printers, all you should have to do is connect it to the computer via USB, or connect it to the network via Ethernet or wireless.  Once you have that done Windows will handle the rest.  There are alternate methods of installing your printer if the normal methods are not working for some reason.  You can install the printer either using the Printer Install Wizard, or through Windows Updates. 
    Printer Install Wizard:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02681060&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
    Windows Update:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03460648&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
    Note: The Laserjet drivers for the Asia-Pacific and Japan won’t be released until a later date.  Check the support site linked below for driver availability.  I will update this post once they become available.

  • Why can I not print anything from a web page?

    Why can I not print anything from a web page?

    Thank you, but I still haven't solved my problem. I tried the reset suggestion. But I cannot find print.print_printer preference. Maybe the word "printer" is to be replaced with the name of my printer. But because of the warning that making any changes is a very dangerous thing to do, I hesitated to do anything.
    I have located the Print to file option, but it is not checked.
    This problem did not exist before the Firefox update of about 6 months ago. Today I downloaded the latest Firefox update, hoping that would solve my problem, but it did not.
    Thank you for your continued assistance.

  • Why can't I print the content of a row in the ResultSet twice?

    An exception was thrown when I tried to print it twice like this:
    while (rs.next()) {
    System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
    System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
    }Why?

    An exception was thrown when I tried to print it
    twice like this:
    while (rs.next()) {
    System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
    System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
    }Why?The real question is: why would you want to do that? ResultSets shouldn't be printed like that. MVC separation says that printing is View, and ResultSet is persistence. Better to iteration through the ResultSet once, loading the data into an object or data structure, close the ResultSet in a finally block, and then pass the object or data structure for rendering (be that printing or JSP or Swing or whatever your View is).

  • Why do pdfs sometimes print darker?

    There are some expected answers to this question but I would love to get a whole lot of input to cover all my bases. Why will some colours print out darker or differently do the work file or PDF? Is it due to the paper type it is printed on? Or that the images have not been converted to CMYK? ....

    Well i try to convert all the images i use to CMYK in photoshop before placing them in inDesign - will this actually make a major difference to the printed out colour?
    When i PDF from InDesign my colour settings are - Document CMYK U.S. Web coated v2 (this is in the "DESTINATION" toggel. The fact that the word "web" is in the name makes me wonder if this is correct? I am working in another designer's template and this is what the previous designer must have used. I print to PDF/X1a. If possible guide me on what and where i should double check on.
    The paper it is printed on makes the colours automatically darker since it is "newspaper" quality paper. The thing that bothers me is that only some images will come out a touch darker than they should be, because all the istock photos i use come out fine. Anyway I woould love it if someone can give me som guidelines as to what my colour profile need to be in my Indesign file... there are so many options.
    Thanks

  • Why am I getting print file not accepted?

    I'm using a HP LaserjetP1102W 
    Print file not accepted?  No idea why?
    It's been saying Printer Not Connected. 
    I'm using Safari and would like to print coupons.
    Hope this is the right place to post this.
    Thanks!

    Hello lostvalleyfarm,
    It sounds like you are not able to print to your HP Laserjet.  I recommend following these steps to troubleshoot the issue you are experiencing:
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.

  • Printing is so slow

    Hi everybody
    I am using Reports 6i and developed reports in PDF format but printing is very slow on DMP Printers.
    Thanks
    Sachin Goel

    Sachin,
    If your aim to print , then you can do it directly from reports using destype=printer.
    This would be much faster.
    In 9i, you can use PDF compression to compress the PDF and that might make the PDF file size smaller and hence faster to print also
    If you want to view and print, you could also think of postscript output of reports, view it in postscript viewer, print
