Print Problem

Win2000 Pro, SP 2, Intel 2.4 GHz, 1024 MB RAM

For the first time three days ago, and ever since, I get the message
"insufficient memory to complete operation" when trying to print a
JPEG, BMP, GIF picture (regardless of size) from MS Photo Editor.
Standalone machine, unchanged hardware- and softwarewise for months.

I would appreciate a hint as to what to look for.

Before you go to print check your paper sizes from Photo Editor > File >
Print .... on my machines they've shown as custom sizes and I am unable
to alter them

I had an issue with my recently purchased Samsung 1270 laser that does
the exact same thing. Its attached via a Jetdirect box and both Win 2000
and Win XP boxes both come up with the error you mention.

However if I print from MS Imaging for Windows it works fine.

I just figured Photo Editor does'nt agree with my printer driver.

Thank you for your answer.
Photo Editor did agree with my printer driver though, at least until
three days ago.
I found the solution, sort of. In > View > Measurement Units, the actual
setting was Pixels. Changing it to inches or centimeters makes the
problem go away. Which leaves me stumped.
