Solve : slow printing?

Answer»

Hi,

Yesterday I started having a problem with my Photosmart 7755 printer. It's printing really slowly. I will PRINT a line or so, then stop for a long time, then print another few lines. I am just trying to print a normal text document from Word, but the same thing happens when I try to print from the web.

The computer it is attached to: 1 Ghz AMD Thunderbird, 512 MB RAM, win xp Home sp2.

Any HELP is appreciated.

Thanks,
GaryWhat has changed from when it used to work until now?

Have you tried reinstalling the printer software?HI,

WELL, quite a bit had changed. I uninstalled a bunch of software - spybot, adaware, avg antivirus, for the PURPOSE of installing new antivirus software. I hadn't installed the new stuff yet when the printing slowed down. No, I haven't tried to reinstall the printer software. I'll give it a try.

Thanks,

Hopefully you were not connected to the internet in the interim as you will be infected within seconds. Put on the new stuff (what is it?), UPDATE and do a scan in safe mode.

I installed Microsoft OneCare. Actually, I did have to go to some Microsoft sites to get files that I needed to install OneCare. I have since done a scan though, and all seems to be well.

Thanks,
