When you try to print in XP, print speed is extremely slow

(From my point of view) problem is XP takes too long average print for printing - + 8 MINUTES for a document from Word to a single line.
Much more time for multi-page documents.  Print all successfully complete, later.  I have:

1 HP Photosmart 8450 due ethernet router DLink 655.

2 HP Officejet 6500 ethernet due DLink 655.

3. Windows XP desktop ethernet due DLink 655.

4 Windows Vista laptop wireless for DLink 655.

Both XP and Vista print to HP Officejet in less than 30 seconds.  XP is Home Edition 2002 SP3.  Pentium 2G, 2G of RAM.

Vista prints in Photosmart in less than 30 seconds.  Given that Vista can print wireless at the Photosmart in seconds and the XP can print at the Officejet in seconds, I think that more than 8 minutes waiting for the XP/Photosmart is not an acceptable performance.

Have tried a number of solutions with no improvement in XP-to-Photosmart printing time.  It is:

1. directly Photosmart desktop XP via USB connection.

2. uninstall/reinstall the two printers on XP.

3. change XP LPT_Timeout 3 sec.

4 disable HP Cue discovery at XP startup.

5 disable the XP firewall.

6. change IP Photosmart addressing manual, with no default Gwyn, on XP. (Officejet is set to auto)

7 Ran Network Diagnostics utility HP.  Everything was going well.

8 Ran HP printer utility of diagnosis.  May be a suspicion, but HPPDU listed two printers, but it would NOT diagnose or identify any technical info on the Photosmart.  There must be a clue here, somewhere, but I don't know where to go with it.

Windows Network Monitor 3.4 and run a number of traffic between the XP and Photosmart capture installed.  The captured images confirmed long printing:

a. After entering the command print XP sends immediately 2 pings to Photosmart 8450; 8450 replied.

b. immediately XP spoolsv.exe initiated a TCP 3 frame sequence 8450.

c. 4 minutes later XP spoolsv.exe and 8450 exchanged 5 executives of TCP (3 of XP, 2 of 8450).

d. 4 minutes later XP spoolsv.exe and 8450 exchanged 5 TCP frames.

e. 1 minutes later XP spoolsv.exe and 8450 exchanged 7 TCP frames.

f. 20 seconds later, XP spoolsv.exe and 8450 exchanged 6 TCP frames.

I tried the HP Support Forum, with little success so far and think it's a question XP (driver sw, spooler,?).  Would appreciate any suggestion, will try anything.

Halima,

I think that I fixed my problem!

1. I finished the fixit tool.  This led me to go XP printer/properties/Advanced/New Driver and run the Add Printer Driver Wizard.  Once I realized this, the impression on the reduced to 4.5 minutes 8450 before starting to print.  Still not very good, but a 50% improvement.  Not sure how I missed this before.  I had spent the HP support site and checked for updates from the HP driver and also checked out the site to update Windows sw for later.  Have never run new option XP driver, that has changed something, even if the wizard never showed that he has changed.  The HP driver seems unchanged.

2. from your sw security issue, I revisited these programs - fire-windows, sw, sw anti-virus malware.  Previously, I had turned off the firewall, with no improvement.  Apparently I had not tried all the two 2 other programs.  Disable the anti-virus has no effect.  With only the sw off malware, the 8450 printing is now in 30 seconds or less.  This pretty much solved my problem, although I don't know what to do with the malware software, other than disabling him whenever I want to send a print to the 8450, or acquire a different malicious software product.  Still a bit confusing, because with the malware active sw, my other printer (6500) works to<30 seconds---always="">

Thanks for your help.  I think he has answered.

  • Constant "paper jam" when you try to print photos

    Hi all

    I get constant "paper jam" error when you try to print photos on HP Premium Plus photo papers. I use 13 x 18 cm and A4 documents. I gave up a single sheet of A4 paper and printed the printer self-test report and it shuts everything OK.

    I already followed the instructions of rolls to power clean paper, but without effect (for example http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01123477

    I'm about to give up and look for service but the strange thing is that jams only when I try to print photos (for example from Lightroom) but is allowed when copies of documents or printing self-test report.

    Any advice here?

    Thank you

    Adam

    Hi MissTeriLynn,

    Troubleshooting instructions made me pick up the problem with Lightroom. I came across a statement "some other Adobe software users have reported conflicts with HP printers. They tend to have long names and a simple change of name of the printer, for example to something like desktop printer or MYPRINTER seems to work"(here).

    And guess what. It resolved my problem as well. I have configure most of the options of printed model but the printing again.

    Thank you very much for the support provided!

    See you soon,.

  • Blue screen error when you try to print Adobe PDF files

    Original title: the computer crashes when I try to print Adobe PDF files.

    I unintalled and reinstalled remains 9.3.3 and it still won't print. The OS crashes when you try to print a .pdf file. I can open the document and view the file but not print, just the blue screen and restarts. I opened a word document, print and print text files. It will print anything but Adobe files. Is there any help out there?

    HonoriusIII

    Thank you for your support and help Sicard. I finally got to the last version of Adobe as the culprit. It seems that the latest version 9.3.3 was causing problems. I uninstalled the software, cleaned the registry and other remains and installed the various editions of Adobe. Seems that Vista likes only one software version which proved Adobe 8.0. Once I installed the software, found a few .pdf documents and tried to print. Not only did it print well, it was very fast. Of all the places to find the 8.0 Adobe has been installed on my recovery disks. I don't think Microsoft product (s) are the root cause. Something in Adobe was the cause of the crash. I have the error message has not write against accidents, but it dumped memory and restart is fine, no conflict of driver. Only thing I did after each accident was to defragment. the hard drive and RAM by using certain tools. Vista ran fine since. I know a lot of people out there do not like Vista, but I did have a lot of problems with the software. I found problems with other types of competing software and work with software developers using their products in beta. The crash of the problems were not these beta products. I believe in keeping software simple and effective, it seems that Adobe will conversely making it too complicated software and an application's entire concept.

    Thanks for you help,

    Hello @katt6,

    Welcome to the forums

    I understand that you can print documents with success and however, make copies when you try to print a Web site or an e-mail, the pages come out blank.

    Personally, I think that there could be a problem with the browser you are using and would recommend that you try to print from another browser. Firefox or Chrome should work. Please try one of them and let me know what happens!

    Download Firefox here: Firefox Free Download

    Download Google Chrome here: Download Google Chrome

    Hi Carol,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft community!

    When you try to print, you get the message as PCL XL Error, error InternalError 0 x 50.

    PCL XL errors occur when you use the PCL6 drivers.

    1. What is brand and model printer?

    2 - is the printer test page print correctly?

    To fix the problem, you can try to uninstall and reinstall the printer drivers.

    Also, you can turn off the printer for 30 seconds and turn it back on and see if the problem still occurs.

    I hope this helps. If the problem persists, or if you have problems of Windows in the future, let us know and we would be happy to help you.

  • Two devices Fax listed when you try to print from Internet Explorer metro

    Hello.  Our Pro Officeject 8600 is ranked twice as "Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600" when access to the 'Peripheral' charm in Windows 8 Pro 64 bit and try to print from Internet Explorer of Metro.

    One of the two brings in fact appear Fax options, while the other will be printed as usual, but you must use some trial and error when you try to print.

    It is specific to IE connecting the metro interface as the desktop IE printer appears as normal.

    I want my printer to appear as a printer and not a fax, so that I don't have to guess...

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    This isn't a problem from the point of view that the software works in fashion, it is supposed to. When you install your printer it installs two drivers, one for fax and one for the printer, because they are two totally different functions. If you find it difficult to distinguish between them, I would recommend renaming as I mentioned above.

    Uninstall and reinstall the printer will not change this fact.

    I would like to know if this is the information that you need to hear!

    Have a wonderful day!
