Title: Some files not printing
Post by: paddygriffin on October 04, 2011, 09:51:28 PM
I've noticed recently when I print a batch of 70 + images that they don't all print for me. Its usually the first 20 or so files that are left so I'm thinking there might be a file limit to a batch, maybe 50 files or so?

I'm using XP, fully up to date etc and latest ver of ultimate. I'm printing to a mitsubishi 3800 dye sub.
As far as I can see I haven't changed any settings in Ultimate.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Sounds like a spooler memory problem to me.  The article at http://ddisoftware.com/tech/articles/april-2010-understanding-your-photo-printer/ should help because it has a section related to prints not printing.  Follow the links there and you'll find advice on how to deal with memory issues, particularly if you are printing large prints or a large number of prints.  You weren't very specific about what happened but it sounds like QU sent the prints (it showed them processing) but they never appeared.  That's a classic Windows print spooler memory (RAM or hard drive space) failure.
