- Are you using print manager? Do you have a RAM disk set up with
- a temp subdirectory that is being pointed to? With 16 Mb, you should.
- W4W and printing will create lots of tmp files with larger sofisticated
- documents. Where do you have W4W backup path set to? Do you Have 2.0b?
- Do any of these questions help?
