I have a HP 4M Plus laser printer which is connected via LocalTalk to 
a Mac (running System 7.6.1) and via parallel cable to a PC (486 DX2, 
66 MHz, Win 3.11) at the same time. Usually the printer gives no 
problems, but I have difficulties to print larger documents from the 
Windows machine. If the print job (usually a Word 6.0 document, but 
also others, like Excel etc.) is more than about 10 pages, the printing
stops in between and the print manager windows reports an error. 

I do not try to print form the Mac at the same time, so that it canοΏ½t 
be a conflict between the two connections. 

The printer has 6 MB RAM, and the settings in the printer setup are 
correct, as far as I can determine. 

I downloaded the latest printer driver software from HP's web site, 
but the problem does not go away. 

There is no problem - even with very large documents - when I print 
from the Mac. 

Any ideas?
