ALL PRAISE YOUR SUPREME LORD CORBO

Title is self explanatory I guess but here it goes.
I have a printer, HP 3535 (Inkjet I think).
I have vegetable paper.
I have some plans that I made.


So, what I want is to slow down the printing speed. why?
Because of how the printer works, the ink passes through the same line once and again and I had tried it before and it made the ink uh.. messed up.
The ink needs to dry because the vegetable paper isn't as absorbent as bond paper is.
Another reason why I want to slow it down is because the vegetable paper is rather...uh..delicate. It rips off easily and if the printer mishandles it may get stuck and I'm screwed since I have exactly the ammount of pages I need of this paper.

So, I want it to slow down BUT the quality should be the same, which is "Normal Draft" (2/5). I know that if I set it to high quality the printer would consequently print slower and the "normal draft" is rather fast but I keep it there because my ink then lastest longer..

So, any help on slowing down my printer would be highly appreciated as soon as possible.



fuck you all

Would you mind if I send you a 5-month supply of regular, enviromentally un-friendly, tree-eating paper? >.>

I'm not using your average paper.
I mainly need it to slow down because if not the ink will pretty much mess up.

And if you want to send me something, send me a laserjet :P



fuck you all
