I don't think you can solve it, it is HP serious problem.

Even you use VFP 6.0 with SP3, you still get out of memory and hand machine...

It only can solve unless HP ltd. fix their printer driver.. ~_~

OR you need to use another brand printer..

>>>Whenever I use File / Page Setup / Print Setup in the VFP Report Designer to set page settings -- such as Landscape -- in a report, my default printer gets stored as the default for the report, overriding the user's default printer. I created the program below to clear the printer from the report file as recommended by the Microsoft KB, however, I lose the Landscape setting in the process. How can I prevent the printer from being stored in the first place or flexibly "scrub" only the default printer setting from my report file? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Scott
