The printing speed of the network printer is too slow.

Reinstall the printer driver by adding a local printer and then changing the port.

1. Select Start/Settings/Printer. In the printer window, add a printer, select "Local Printer", remove the "Automatically detect and install my plug and play printer" option, and install the lpt 1 port driver as prompted. When the dialog box of manufacturer and printer model appears, select Have Disk, find the printer driver, and install the printer driver without printing test.

2. After the installation is completed, right-click the icon of the newly installed printer, select Properties, click Add Port in the Ports tab, select standard TCP/IP port, click New Port, and then enter the IP address of the printer as prompted.

In order to reduce the purchase cost to the greatest extent, many companies choose ordinary printers when purchasing office printers, and then realize network printing through local area network. Although this method is economical, in practical use, the printing speed is very slow. On the one hand, this reason is related to the performance of the printer itself, but more often it is caused by the user's incorrect setting of system and printer parameters. We only need a few simple actions to solve such a problem.

First, bypass online neighbors and print directly.

Sometimes, the reason why we think that the printer is slow is actually because the operation steps of the printer are much more complicated than when it is used alone. Open My Network Places first, and then find the target printer. Double-click the printer icon to establish a print connection with it. Finally, the material printing operation can be officially carried out. Because I have prepared too much before, I feel that my work speed is slow. In view of this situation, we can use the function of configuration script in Windows XP to make the computer automatically connect to the network printer.

First, open Notepad in the local system and enter the following two lines of code in the text editing window:

@ Turn off echo

Network use \ computer \ printing

In the actual input process, you need to replace "Computer" with the host name of the computer where the printer is located, and "Print" with the name of the printer, and then save it in "bat" format. The method is to execute the "File → Save" command. In the file saving dialog box that pops up, set the saving type to "All files", and then enter the file and its name. Bat suffix in the file name input box, for example, name it autoprn.bat

Next, execute the "Start → Run" command, enter "gpedit.msc" and click the "OK" button to open the system group policy editing window of the local computer.

In the opened properties window, click "Add", then import the autoprn.bat file created earlier, click "OK", and finally restart the computer according to the system prompt. In this way, when the local computer is started, it will automatically establish a connection with the target printer. When printing again, you can click the "Print" button to complete the operation just like using a local computer. Because the operation steps are simplified, the printing speed is invisibly improved.
