I'm running win2k on a 1.2gu\ghtrz with 198mb ram. I have the newest bios and sp2 installed. Yesterday, I installed the drivers for my Deskjet 932c HP printer. The test page printed fine. This morning, while making some signs for a big meeting, I got these strange errors. REstarting any number of times dosn't seem to help. I had printed out a couple of signs, and was trying to print out my 3rd one whent they hit. Here they are. ....spoolsvexe1-4 are the error messages that came up first, and now, whenever I restart, at the login screen. ...spoolsvexe6 is the event log made my win2kpro. ...spoolsvexe5 is the error when I start up MS publisher 2000 (program I was using to make the signs)

Could you tell us if you get the same errors printing out copies of text file

I would say with out your answer to the above question that the simple wasn't enough room to be spooling many large posters

It might help if you just print them out one at a time
 
The "large poster" looked like this. "MEN'S ROOM", in big bold letters. The first 4 errors I got when I START UP, not when I print! the other posters I'm making include "Lady's ROOM" "GUEST PLACEMENT" "BABIES ONLY"..... I don't think they are very complex at all, just big bold letters. I just printed out a text file fine. however, for some reason, I didn't get those errors when I started up either. I will try publisher now.....

I got the 5th error again, when trying to print from ms publisher. IT WORKED FINE BEFORE. Is there anyway I can increase my spooler size?
