Q: QuestionCan I print from an iPhone away from my home network?
Asked by Bud.
- A:Answer As long as the printer is configured for "Wi-Fi direct", you're in range of the printer, and your phone can "see" the printer's Wi-Fi "credentials", you should be able to print. The User Manual will help you get things set up.

Q: QuestionWhat is the print rate for b/w documents
Asked by signing.
- A:Answer Print rate is determined by a number of factors: 1) Text only or text and graphics or graphics only? 2) Single or double-side (double-side = SLOWER print rate) 3) Print resolution (higher resolution = better clarity = SLOWER print speed) 4) % of page covered in text/graphics (more "coverage" = SLOWER speed) 5) Paper SIZE ("larger" paper = SLOWER print rate) The only way to determine "print speed" is to actually PRINT SOMETHING and time it from first page eject to last page eject, and test it with DIFFERENT SIZE papers (i.e., Letter, Legal, envelopes. etc.). I suppose for "average" (i.e., 50%) text/graphic coverage, "Draft" mode (75 DPI), single-sided, you may get 20 PPM or so. Again, Your Mileage Will Vary based on the "print factors" I entered above.

Q: QuestionI have teen children who have been printing too much. can i make it so they can not print to this printer without me entering a password on their device?
Asked by Sawyer.
- A:Answer There isn't an obvious or easy way to do it. However, if you turn off the regular WiFi connection to the printer and enable WiFi Direct on the printer, that will let you control who has the password, and you can change it if necessary without messing up the whole wireless network.
