Error When Printing More Than 20 Pages...Dell 1100 on WinServer2003

I have a Dell 1100 printer that is connected to my WinServer2003 and is
networked and available to all the other PCs. Mostly this works very good,
but sometimes when I try to print a PDF document with more than 15 pages or
so, I get an error and it shuts down the reader and I only get 12 or so
pages printed. In looking at the error message, it seems to be with the
printer driver. But, what about memory space on the server. Could that be
possible. Is there a hidden setting somewhere.
Thank you

Hello pestocat,

How is the printer connected, via TCP/IP port or LPT port or both and also
both configured? Have you searched for a new driver from Dell to prevent
driver problems?

Best regards

The printer is connected to server via the USB port. I then connect to the
printer using TCP/IP. I installed the latest driver from Dell hoping this
would solve the problem, but I saw no changes.

Hello pestocat,

How many free space do your c:drive have? And how big is the file? If the
print spooler needs more space then you have free on your c:drive, it will
cause also problems. Also check the ip configuration of your printer with
ip subnet mask and default gateway, that there is no mismatch to your server
configuration.

Best regards
