This is 90% likely a computer problem: how much RAM do you have? What app
was doing the printing? What OS version do you have? What computer do you
have (if you've got a PPC 7500/100 you can't expect miracles from modern
software)? Have you got the *latest* drivers for the printer (d/l from the
web)? Are you printing B&W or colour?
