      • Ensure that the printer is connected to the network. • Determine if a print spooler or a computer sharing the printer is buffering all print jobs and then spooling them to the printer. Spooling can slow print speeds. • To test the printer, print an information page, such as the Configuration Report. If the page prints, there could be a network or printer installation issue. For help, contact the system administrator.
