I had a printer with 160M of RAM and some print jobs were failing. The spool files that CUPs was using were about 220M in size. Obviously 220M spool files and 160M of RAM isn't going to work. I upgraded the printer to 288M of RAM, which would hopefully be barely enough to print those files. CUPS is now generating ~360M spool files for the same print request (printing a page from a flash-based web site). It seems like CUPS is asking the printer (Brother HL-3040CN connected via LPD protocol on Ethernet) how much RAM it has and is then using more! Is it possible to configure CUPS to limit it's spool files, dropping quality if necessary? -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
