❏ If you print continuously for an extended period, the printing may be extremely slow. This is to slow down the
printing speed and prevent the product mechanism from overheating and being damaged. If this happens, you
can continue to print, but we recommend stopping and leaving the product idle for at least 30 minutes with the
power on. (The product does not recover with the power off.) After you restart, the product will print at normal
speed.
❏ Uninstall the printer driver, then reinstall it.

If you try all of the methods above and cannot solve the problem, see the following:
