When the printer is powered back on, it takes about 3 minutes to initialize and check and prepare the printhead. Preparing the printhead takes about 75 seconds. However, if the printer has been off for 2 weeks or more, preparing the printhead could take up to 7 minutes, plus 13 minutes if it needs a printhead recovery.
