1) Try printing to file, and then redirect that file to the
printer. If the redirection fails, then you definetly
have a problem outside of Rose.
print to file, (checkbox in printer properties)
then redirect file to network printer:
>From a DOS prompt:
copy test.prn \\Servername\printername
If you are unsure of where you printer is, go into
Control Panel, Printers, Printer name and server should
be listed. You can also go to Add Printer, Network printer,
and a list of printers and locations will come up.
NOTE:
Since this is DOS only 8 characters are reconized, so
only enter the first 8 characters of the printer name.
For example,
\\PSERVER\a234567
Even thou printer name me be a23456789, this
will usually work.
2) Here is everything I could find\think of regarding this error:
1) Make sure you have latest print driver.
2) Uninstall\Reinstall Rose per uninstall tech note.
3) Do you have Microsoft Fax... If so does that have same error?
If so see technote below.
4) Do you have Adobe software... If so does that have same error?
If so see note below.
4) HP Deskjet printer? See technote below.
5) Only thing else I can thing of, see following MS technote and
see if it helps.

Problems Printing with Adobe
Adobe says when you print to the Acrobat PDF Writer for Windows
from WordPad in Windows 95, the PDF Writer may return this error:
"Could not start print job." This may happen if you've installed
other software since installing PDF Writer. Adobe's workaround:
Delete all PDF Writer references from the Win.ini file and
reinstall the PDF Writer. Here's how: 1) First off, make a backup
copy of the Win.ini file which is located in the Windows folder;
2) Open the original Win.ini file in a text editor that has the
ability to save in text-only format (e.g., WordPad); 3) All lines
that contain "pdfw" need to be deleted; 4) Save the file in
text-only format and restart Windows; 5) Insert your Acrobat CD-ROM
and in Windows Explorer, double-click the Install.exe file on the
Acrobat CD; 6) Click on Accept to accept the License Agreement and
then in the Acrobat and Related Products dialog box, choose only
Acrobat PDF Writer 3.0. The click Next and follow the on-screen
instructions to complete the installation.
