"Out of Disk Space". Why?
I currently have a HP DeskJet 870Cxi. The printer is connected to a PC, currently running Windows NT 4 Workstation, which acts as a print server.
Whenever a networked computer attempts to print to it, the print server displays "Out of Disk Space" error message. If anyone can help me
out it would be greatly appriciated. Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure if this is a networking problem. But any advice will help

My hard disk is 1.5 gigs. I have about 500 Megs of free space.....I'm still not sure how to free up the disk space or how much space I need.
Go to My PC --> Control Panel --> Printers --> put rodent's arrow above your HP printer and right click --> Select "Properties" --> "Details" tab --> Press "Spool settings" --> click on "Print directly to the printer"
That disables printer spooler, leaving applications to take direct control over the printer. Perhaps that's the solution.

One reason you will get an error message in Windows telling you "out of disk space" is that your virtual drive settings is not set properly. In Windows NT you need to set the virtual space as large as possible when it serves as printer server.

Check to see if your disk has enough free space.
