conflicting USB cable connections

•Attach the printer’s USB cable directly to the computer instead of a hub, or

•When the printer is attached to a hub, do not use other USB devices also attached to the hub while printing.

When the Automatic option is enabled, the printer takes a few seconds to scan the first page of the print job. This is done to determine the appropriate paper type. To increase the print speed, turn off the Automatic Paper-Type Sensor.
