The thing is, it's not just a Photoshop problem here. It's from any program (Geomedia for example) that can print large amounts of data to a postscript driver for a large-format plotter/RIP engine. That's usually when the postscript size usually jumps up into the problematic category.

And just as Dov stated before, I also believe that it's a bug with the spooling subsystem instead of the drivers since it happens to any of the drivers.

I was actually able to test out some more Dov, but to no avail...nothing seems to work for me. I've tried the following so far at this point:
  - loaded patch posted on w2k/NTFS/all critical/SP3
  - reformatted, NTFS, no patches
  - reformatted, FAT32, no patches
  - loaded all critical/SP3
  - loaded patch posted

So at this point, I'm about to reload WinXP from scratch to see if it's going to work again (it should).

At this point, unless someone can bring to light a possible explanation/fix for this, I'm going to have to do some XP installs...
