Odd. Printing to my HP LJIII (with HP PS cartrige, Level 2) I don't
have these problems. I usually actually print to the IBMNULL driver
(dumping from the command line to lpt1), and yesterday printed a paper
with a 2.6Mb graphics file embedded in it - it took over an hour for
just that one page to print, but I never got a pop up error box.
