      Hi there.

      I’m sorry to hear that your printer has rendered prints so slowly, and that you’re not satisfied with the printer’s capabilities. I can understand why that would be a frustrating combination, so I’ll offer some resources and information I hope will help.

      First, I recommend that you follow a guide on our support site that covers improving print speed; choose whichever of the following two links matches your operating system:
      - Windows: support.hp.com/us-en/document/bud03409
      - Mac OS: support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01928898

      Also, often just updating the firmware can help improve print speed. You can find out how to do that here:
      - support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02919168

      If the problem persists, I suggest that you contact us directly at +1 800-474-6836 so we can help you assess the situation and guide you through any applicable troubleshooting. (Please note that because of restrictions on personal movement and workplace attendance associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, wait times for agents are longer than normal. Thanks in advance for your understanding.) To expedite the process, I recommend gathering the following information before the call:

      - Model number
      - Serial number
      - Your location
      - Case number (from any previous contact with HP support)

      Hi,

      I am sorry that you'd had problems with the printer's speed. Often we find that a firmware upgrade can improve that.

      Upgrading your firmware and loading the full-featured software can help many performance issues, particularly speed and printing options. Downloads of both of those can be found here:
      support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-officejet-3830-all-in-one-printer-series/7172321

      If there is anything else that we can help with, please contact us: hp.com/contactHP
