Insufficient memory

clear your windows\temp directory and try again. sometimes the print spool gets messed up and after so many failed attempts won't allow printing. I've also ran into a few programs that if the file is larger than 32meg it can't handle it either. Other than that watch your disk space.
Good luck

Other suspects for a memory error when printing images:

Too many programs running in the background reducing the available RAM.

Too small of a paging file.
Either set to small, or limited by free hard drive space.
My rule of thumb for minimum paging file size is:
RAM < 500MB, set paging file so total of RAM and paging file (virtual memory) is at least 1GB.
RAM > 500MB, set paging file to between 2X RAM with a minimum of 1GB.

I also get nervous when the free space on the system drive is less than 20% of the drive size.

The solution that solved my problem, was to upgrade the printer drivers.

This is a reformated laptop and the temp files are only three and the size is 1kb each. I am not trying to print or do any operation, except logon the laptop. The message comes after, "windows is starting up, and just before the desktop becomes available".

none of the suggestions help. thanks and close the ticket'
