One of the most useful things that one can have in his home would probably be printers. They are very beneficial in terms of business work, school work, or maybe even just in the hobby of producing arts and crafts or anything of the sort. This is why investing in a good quality one is a must.

However, there are times that printers act up and all you want to do is just smash them on the floor but then you remember that you would basically end up with nothing to use if you do so. Many people think that acquiring printer repair Jersey City services is the first thing that they should do but it really is not. Before deciding to spend money to have it fixed, channel your inner technical representative self and try these troubleshooting steps for common printer problems.

Slow printing. Admit it, no matter the brand and type, some of these things just act up and print too slow. Okay so when trying to fix this problem on your own, check on the printer properties and find the option that reduces its print quality. This can even save you ink, but if such does not work, you might want to add a RAM to your little buddy.

One may also check to see if it is plugged into a fast port at the back of your CPU. Also, try to steer away from reducing a large material from two pages to fit in one because this can also affect the speed that your device is printing on. Images and graphics will also cause it to slow down so make sure to reduce the amount of such that you are going to print, especially when unnecessary.

Wrong device. If you have ever clicked the print button, waited and ended up with nothing, like not even a blank bond paper, then your computer may have sent the job to the wrong one. Check if the printer is turned on or properly connected to the PC. If not, do the necessary adjustments.

However, when it still does not work, one can try checking if the printer name and the device you are using is set as default to which your computer sends the jobs to is the same. If not, change the default and check. There are times that the PC, for some unknown reason, selects a different equipment so look out for that.

Bad quality. Results that look cloudy or have lines and spots on them are very common especially for inkjets which are not used often so the ink dries out. One may want to check the properties of the device to see if it is on high quality. If not, change it and try printing again.

If it still does not work, look for the utility tool that is built in on some devices. This cleans out dried up ink and allows you to do a test print for inspection. If it works, good. If it does not, check for availability of ink on cartridge.

These things are not at all cheap so seeing them act up can drive one a little insane and nervous. Before having a total panic attack though, do some basic troubleshooting steps as first aid. If these things do not help, it may be time to send it for repair.
