Slow printing

RadioSaigon · Jan 10, 2011

I have a Lexmark E120 connected to my MBP via WLAN (Network cable attached to TC) which works, but very slowly. I have just printed a 3-page PDF which would have taken fully 5 minutes to print from the time I sent the document to the printer. The MBP tells me the document is printing, the printer appears to be ready... it just takes a helluva long time before the printer actually activates and spits the document out! The file-type being printed appears to be immaterial -it's the same whatever I print.

MBP specs in sidebar.

Would appreciate any advice!

Suggestions, anyone?

How big is the file that you are trying to print?

Tiny. Only a single page.

Is the link status set at full duplex 100TX in the printer settings.

I'm sorry, you've lost me...

I've checked the System Preferences/Printer pane but see nothing like that there...

This will be in your printer setup use the url of your printer and access the settings and status.
