how to improve print speed with epson 9600?
437692
I know that having a slow computer usually slowed my 7600.. But it won't make it any faster than it's fastest speed.  \n\nIf you don't care about quality, go into the Epson driver and change it from high quality to high speed.  Turn off the Microweaving (I think that's what it's called).

yes reset settings in printers and reinstall drivers or update them

It sounds as if you might not have the right driver installed for your printer.\n\nMake sure you have the proper driver installed by deleting the printer from your system and re-adding it. You may also want to check with the printer manufacturer to make sure you have the most recent driver.\n\nHope this helps.

Anything Epson.. whatever you can afford.  They're the best.  We just upgraded to Epson Stylus Photo 2200.  It's SWEET!  But our other one was Epson Stylus CX3200 and that one was nice too.  We only upgraded cause we print off ALL of our photos and wanted to print 11*14.

My office went from a printer with 2mb ram to something like 48 and the difference in speed was amazing. I had to run checks on the printer and it saved a lot of time. Huge difference if you have large print jobs.

80 lb paper, it is over 280 gsm and 0.33 mm, too heavy and too thick! Typically, the design and calibration laser printer is based on 70 ~ 80 gsm. \n\nOf course, it needs to slow down printing speed to avoid paper jam when increasing paper thickness meanwhile it also possible to take more time for toner transfer from OPC drum to paper and increasing toner density as well. You may change default “common paper” to “106 ~ 163 g/m2” for slow down printing speed of HP laser printer and change Konica Minolta to “thick paper” or “transparency” for the other brands \n\nUnfortunately, slow down printing speed is not enough. The toner transfer from OPC drum to paper is based on electrostatic filed and it difficult to be transferred sufficiently if paper too thick. The consequence of printing quality is very white (color saturation is very poor or toner density is not enough). The solution is paper surface must have positive polarity to enhance electrostatic filed and help toner transfer.\n\nThe other problem will be raised! The fuser temperature of laser printer will heat up to around 200 degree C and melt down toner. The coating material on the paper surface must resist thermal stress when slow down printing speed otherwise printer will be damaged!\n\nCurrently, the weight of photographic paper is around 170 ~ 220gsm. So, our designation is focusing to this range. Of course, thermal stress and positive polarity on the paper surface shall considerate. As I know, suitable 80 lb paper is not so easy to find at this moment.\n\nDue to the toner and laser printer’s engine are difference between difference brands and different series of same brands. Compatibility also is another problem! Fortunately, we had test with HP 2550/3700/4600/5500/9500/Indigo, EPSON C900/C1900/C3000/C4000/C4100, Xerox DC12/6060 and Konica Minolta 2450. \n\nPostScript printing language is possible to enhance gray level and make printing sharpness also. However, corresponding to our testing, we found the printing quality of EPSON is acceptable without PostScript printing language.

I have a couple of new epson printers. \nThe new cx printers are extremely hard to fill. How did you fill them in the first place?\n If you drill or melt a hole in the top, in the EXACT \ncorrect position, and slowly fill them, letting the air\nand ink bubbles exhaust, then, they are "full".\nI weigh the cartridges when new, and when empty, and\nwhen re-filled, so that I know if indeed, they are\nre-filled. You can now buy gram or ounce weight digital scales\neverywhere, including kitchen stores, and retail outlets,\nand they are 20 bucks or so, and very accurate.\n Check the carts to see if on the front, bottom or back\nedge there is a tiny green circuitboard attached to\nink cart with two melted dots of case plastic posts.\n If so, then you have otherwise, a piece of plastic,\ncontaning 35 cents worth of ink, with a self-destruct\nprogrammable chip on it. Every time you use ink, the\nchip is programmed by 7 gold contact points, and the\nprinter "guesses" how much ink you have, and subtracts it.\nAt about 25 per cent to 33 percent full, the chip is\ntold that you are out of ink. This rather full piece\nof plastic, is then DEAD, and cannot be used again.\nI have used a new, FULL cart, and simply run the CLEAN HEAD\nEpson utility a few times, and been told that the carts are now\n50 percent Full ( HALF EMPTY !!! -- and I hadn't printed\nanything yet!!! )\nThe extra caution in telling a cart with ink in, that it\nis empty, is done to prevent the cart from ever really\nemptying, which would suck air into the carriage fill\npost nozzel, and into an inch or two of piping inside\nthe print carriage / head assembly, and in 20 minutes the\nink inside these tubes would dry, and almost permanently\ndestroy the tiny print holes ability to re-wet with any\nnew ink. \n  If you take out a cart, you must either put in a new one\nimmediately, or re-fill immediately. I have seen many \nEpsons in the garbage - all with badly dried print head /\ncarriage assemblies - if you have a SCANNER/ PRINTER, \nsuch as my CX printers, the second the print head is\n"told" by estimation software, that it is "empty" the \nentire machine, including the scanner is DEAD, since,\nwhen you turn it on, you cannot get past the ERROR\nink out message !!!!. \n  The Espon printers with the "new and improved" print ink\nheads and ink carts, are EXTREMELY fragile, and will\nself-destruct at the tiniest problem. If the power goes\noff, and the head is not parked, it dries out. If you\ntake out a cart and go to the store with the cart to \nmake certain you have the correct one, the print head\ndries out. You cannot take out the print head to soak\nit in water without completely tearing the printer apart,\nand removing the delicate microfilm plastic position\nstrip, and the drive belt, and many fragile parts...\n If you do manage to get the print head out, the print head\nis extremely delicate, and ordinary tap water will\ncontaminate the print head holes, and actually\nclog the head worse than the dried ink. Using paper \nproducts with sharp cellulose fibers clogs the heads,\nif you wipe the heads.. ( one webiste uses strips of\ncoffee filters and distilled water, with some success ).\n  The green, self destructing programmable chips on the\nempty pieces of plastic cases, ARE RE-PROGRAMMABLE, and\nprogrammers are available at most decent computer retailers,\nsuch as COMP USA, FRYs, Staples, Business Depot, etc.,\nsince these reputable companies know that the customers\nare being ripped off with being forced to purchase 50\ncent ink carts, that are not even empty, for 40 times the\ncost of manufacture! You MUST make certain that the programmer\nyou purchase LISTS the printer model, or the cart model,\nsince there are dozens of programmers, and Epson keeps\nchanging the programming on new models, so that customers\nare forced to buy only over-priced Epson" carts!\n I am surprised that you state you FILLED an Epson ca

Ok, first of all, unless you are buying a laser printer that can handle input from DOS and uses an internal font, then the computer is sending VASTLY more than a few K to print even a simple letter.\n\nThe reason is that the image is sent over as (for example) a 600 x 600 dpi bitmap.  If you are printing a full page, it can be in the megabytes in theory.\n\nI do agree though, that the computer will handle this effortlessly.\n\nAs for whether this is a feature or not, it is a way to make the printer cheaper - like video cards that use the computers memory - if you are after a REALLY cheap printer, this might fit the bill nicely.\n\nDo bear in mind though, that COLOUR lasers can be found for under £200 / $400 if you shop around. It may be out of your price range, but if if "close", perhaps something to conisder....

Use the highest speed until/unless you have 'write' problems.\nThen I would cut the speed in half and see if it remedies the problem.  But usually it will be something else...

If u can turn off spooler ur printing will b much faster.On most printers u can turn it off by going 2 Start>settings>Printers.Rit click on da icon of da printer u r using Click propeties & then advanced tab.Select print directly 2 printer.This will cause ur printing 2 be faster.

Definately. I would ask someone more proffessional but I know there has to be a way of doing it when you open the print menu. (that's on windows)

I do not know if this will fix your problem but if you are using Windows XP you can hold down the Ctrl key and scroll your mouse wheel to make print larger or smaller. Ray.....
