Print jobs take too much time to be received by the printer Very large prints may take some time to receive, process, and print. However, if the delay seems excessive, try these suggestions. ● Make sure the network cable connected to the printer is rated at least Cat5e. ● Make sure that gigabit-speed networking equipment and cabling interconnects your computer client to the printer. ● Make sure that there are no network link issues. See Link troubleshooting on page 100. ● Take into account that, in network deployments with IPSec security protocols enabled and configured in the printer, network performance may be reduced due to the use of cryptographic algorithms to protect network communications. ● If you experience low-performance network issues when using tools such as HP SmartStream or thirdparty RIPs, check that the RIP printing service and high-speed printing ports 9101 and 9102 are enabled in Embedded Web Server > Networking > Other settings > High-speed RIP mode > Enable high-speed mode. ● Try resetting the network configuration to its factory settings in order to get default settings that are suitable for most standard network environments. See Reset network parameters on page 100. ● You may also find it helpful to test connecting the computer to the printer directly, using a normal Ethernet (Cat5e or Cat6) cable point-to-point, without passing through an Ethernet switch or router. In this configuration, the printer and the computer should both automatically change their IPv4 addresses to the form 169.254.x.x . In this point-to-point configuration you can discard any issues caused by other network equipment. ENWW Troubleshooting 103

Print jobs take too much time to be received by the printer
Very large prints may take some time to receive, process, and print. However, if the delay seems excessive, try
these suggestions.
Make sure the network cable connected to the printer is rated at least Cat5e.
Make sure that gigabit-speed networking equipment and cabling interconnects your computer client to the
printer.
Make sure that there are no network link issues. See
Link troubleshooting
on page
100
.
Take into account that, in network deployments with IPSec security protocols enabled and configured in the
printer, network performance may be reduced due to the use of cryptographic algorithms to protect
network communications.
If you experience low-performance network issues when using tools such as HP SmartStream or third-
party RIPs, check that the RIP printing service and high-speed printing ports 9101 and 9102 are enabled in
Embedded Web Server
>
Networking
>
Other settings
>
High-speed RIP mode
>
Enable high-speed mode
.
Try resetting the network configuration to its factory settings in order to get default settings that are
suitable for most standard network environments. See
Reset network parameters
on page
100
.
You may also find it helpful to test connecting the computer to the printer directly, using a normal Ethernet
(Cat5e or Cat6) cable point-to-point, without passing through an Ethernet switch or router. In this
configuration, the printer and the computer should both automatically change their IPv4 addresses to the
form 169.254.x.x . In this point-to-point configuration you can discard any issues caused by other network
equipment.
