Keep your printer drivers and firmware up to date. Use standard, widely supported fonts. Avoid using excessively complex or custom fonts. Regularly clear the print spooler. Ensure a stable network connection. When possible, test print jobs with critical fonts before sending large batches. Consider using PDF as the print format, as it generally handles fonts more reliably.
