Thanks, Jay!
It turns out that the problem rests with the way pages are created in the
printer; they are converted by the built-in CPU in the printer from the
format received from the computer (e.g., PCL or PS) to the final dots on the
paper. This conversion needs printer RAM, which is often too small for home
user printers. In this case, MS Word 2003 must have used more system
resources for these documents due to large image files imbedded. Though I
have a full 1gb of SDRAM, that was apparently not enough for the conversion
process. I solved the problem by printing smaller sections of the document
in separate print operations. That worked fine.
Just thought you might like to know
