Memory Problem
Hi Charles,

CJ>the printer isn't installed correctly.
The Windows driver is saying there is not enough memory configured on the
printer.
The printer needs sufficient memory to render the bitmap. The larger the
bitmap, which is what a .PCX file becomes when you print it, the more memory
the printer needs.
Make sure that the driver knows about any memory you have beyond the
default. A print driver assumes a "lowest common denominator" configuration
unless told otherwise.

And how much memory on this puppy? The default value should be in the manual
that came with the printer; make sure you include any extra RAM that might
have been installed.
My printer at home has 6MB, but the ones I use at work have either 8MB or
12MB. These handle all sorts of images quite easily. However, the default
memory installed by many manufacturers is 2MB, and this can be a serious
limit.
Regards
Dave
