Printing or Scanning Is Slow/Hi-Speed USB Connection Does Not Work/"This device can perform faster" Message Appears (Windows)

If your system environment does not support Hi-Speed USB, the printer operates at the slower speed of USB 1.1. In this case, the printer works properly but printing or scanning speed may slow down due to the communication speed.

1. Check Check following to make sure your system environment supports Hi-Speed USB connection.

   • Does the USB port on your computer support Hi-Speed USB connection?
