>Dear all,
>Having a problem printing to an IP Print Server. (Dlink brand).
>While printing from our application, the printing stops after 1 1/2 page. The PC is Win 98 based and an error message that indicates that there the print queue buffer or memory is full appears.
>I've removed the remarks in the expr, tag and tag2 fields in the relevant frx file, tried changing the printer to send thru the windows print queue of that PC but it still hits the same problem.
Typically there isn't enough buffer in those devices to handle large print jobs sent directly to them, or from multiple users at once. What I'd recommend:
- Set up a print queue on a PC, which prints to the DLink device and its attached printer. I find these typically work best if the connection is via a "Standard TCP/IP Port" on the PC
- Everyone prints to the print queue on the PC, NOT to the DLink device directly. That way the PC print queue handles buffering multiple/large print jobs, and feeds the DLink device at a rate it can handle.
