Might try converting to a compression type format. I run out of memory on my 2500CP as if I try large tiff files so I use PDF but the other thing is to flatten the layers before printing. Reduces the size of the file. You can always save all the layers in PSD format which is much smaller and does save the layers. Just remember to go back to the layer file to make any changes.

I successfully printed a 30x72" print last week from CS3beta to a Z3100, but tonight a larger file for a 41x88" corporate mural failed to print. CS3 runs through the appropriate dialogs and thermometer bars, just like normal, but the Z3100 print spool monitor doesn't pop up and the file that should have spooled never comes up in the queue. If I print a 50MB test file, the same progression activates the spool monitor, and the Z responds and prints. Are there known limitations with the HP driver in regard to file size? (The offending file is a single layer, 8 bit tiff) Mark
