• You remove the sticker and transparent tape from the backs and bottoms of the print
cartridges. For help, see “Replacing the print cartridges” on page 32.

Printer prints very slowly
• If you are using a Mac OS X version prior to 10.1, consider upgrading to enhance print
system performance.
• Close any software programs not in use.
• Check the document you are printing. Photos and graphics may take longer to print than
regular text. Documents that are large or that contain background images may also take
longer to print.
• Check the printer to see if another document is being printed. Print jobs are printed in the
order the printer receives them.
• Decrease the print quality setting to Normal or Quick Print.
Note: Higher print quality settings result in better quality documents, but may take longer
to print.
