cannot be exceeded even when
more memory is added.
Printing speeds might be
automatically reduced when printing
on special-sized media.
Reduce the complexity of the page
or try adjusting the print-quality
settings. If this problem occurs
frequently, add memory to the
printer.
You are printing a PDF or
