SYMPTOMS

When you print to a printer with bi-directional support, you may receive the following error message:
Not enough memory to render page

CAUSE

The printer driver may have determined the amount of printer memory incorrectly.

RESOLUTION

To work around this behavior, have Windows redetect the printer memory. To do so, follow these steps:
  1. Make sure the printer is connected and ready to print.
  2. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Printers on the menu that appears.
  3. Using the right mouse button, click the Printer icon, and then click Properties on the menu that appears.
  4. In the Properties dialog box for the printer, click the Device Options tab.
  5. Click the Restore Defaults button, and then click the OK button.

MORE INFORMATION

This behavior can also occur if the printer does not have enough memory to render the page. Try printing the page at a lower resolution.
