Hi,

When we print to a print queue via a Print Server, we are not able to get
all pages we print (like we get 20 out of 30). We believe that it is the
problem of memory of the printer. However, the engineer finds that there is
no problem.

On the other hand, we have set up TCP / IP Printing on workstation and it
prints OK. We would like to know
1) For TCP / IP Printing, does it mean that it only uses the memory / HD
space in local workstation for processing and spooling ?
2) Would it be a problem of the Print Server for this case ?

Thanks

.
