16423 2001-08-03 23:59:00 Deskjet 720C has suddenly started printing very slow,had been working fine, now its like 1 page per half hour!
I have deleted all temp files, run scan disk, defrag, and downloaded and installed new driver, ver 10.3 from HP. Problem started when I printed a page from the WWW and the default printer showed as my fax program and not the deskJet
Machine is Athalon 650 256 MbRAM, Win ME, 20Gb HDD.

If this isn't the problem try your printer on onother PC. If its OK then your PC needs some attention, like a clean install of windoz!!

16425 2001-08-04 03:50:00 Hate to point out something even more obviour :-), but have you checked the quality settings, printing in the highest quality will take ages. Unless you are using special paper you probably dont need higher than 360dpi. Microweave will slow things down a lot as well. Guest (0)
