Increasing printer performance The print speed and overall performance of your printer can be affected by several things: • The amount of RAM in your computer can determine how fast your documents are sent to the printer. Increasing the amount of RAM in your computer can speed up this process as well as make your computer work more efficiently when you are doing something besides printing. • The printer driver that you are using to print your documents can make a significant difference in the quality of your printed output. Make sure you are using an up-to-date version of an HP printer driver designed specifically for your printer model. Go to "Printer Software" on page 54 for information on how to get an updated printer driver. • The size and complexity of the documents you print can make a difference in your printer's performance. Graphics and photographs are usually more complex and print more slowly than a document that contains only text. • The processing speed of your computer determines how fast your document is sent to the printer. • The amount of free space on your computer's hard disk makes a difference in printing speed. If your computer has less than 100 MB of free space, it can take longer to process your document for printing. • Running numerous software programs at one time slows down printing, because they are using the RAM in your computer. Therefore, limit the number of programs or documents you open at one time. 68

Increasing printer performance
The print speed and overall performance of your printer can be
affected by several things:
•
The amount of RAM in your computer can determine how
fast your documents are sent to the printer. Increasing the
amount of RAM in your computer can speed up this process
as well as make your computer work more efficiently when
you are doing something besides printing.
•
The printer driver that you are using to print your documents
can make a significant difference in the quality of your
printed output. Make sure you are using an up-to-date
version of an HP printer driver designed specifically for your
printer model. Go to “Printer Software” on page 54 for
information on how to get an updated printer driver.
•
The size and complexity of the documents you print can
make a difference in your printer’s performance. Graphics
and photographs are usually more complex and print more
slowly than a document that contains only text.
•
The processing speed of your computer determines how fast
your document is sent to the printer.
•
The amount of free space on your computer’s hard disk
makes a difference in printing speed. If your computer has
less than 100 MB of free space, it can take longer to process
your document for printing.
•
Running numerous software programs at one time slows
down printing, because they are using the RAM in your
computer. Therefore, limit the number of programs or
documents you open at one time.
