A few weeks ago, with the aid of a hack supplied to me on the Epson inkjet list  I altered the Adobe PressReady driver for the Epson 1270 to make it work with my 1290. Great, I'm thinking, my copy of PressReady is not redundant yet. The hack works too but only it seems for A4 paper with which it works well. I am now wishing to use some A3 paper to proof an A4 image with printers marks and the job will not print. I keep getting a Postscript "error 109 (out of memory) markers failed" message. I have not altered the PPD apart from renaming the machine and, in theory, the paper handling capabilities of the two machines are very similar (I'm not expecting borderless prints etc). 

I have tried increasing memory in the desktop printer but even giving it 50mb makes no difference (it only suggests 350k!). The A3 paper/A4 print + marks combination works fine through the regular Epson driver so it is the Postscript side of things that is playing up.  

Any ideas on how I can use A3 with PressReady or a way of solving this error message? Thanks for any advice.
