Automap: “Print Overrun 21” Error When Printing

PSS ID Number: Q125655 Article last modified on 07-31-1996

WINDOWS

The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Automap Road Atlas for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.02, 3.03, 3.04, and 3.05 - Microsoft Automap Pro for Windows, versions 1.06, 1.08, and 1.09 - Microsoft Automap Streets for Windows, versions 1.0 and 1.01 - Microsoft Automap Destination Ski - Microsoft Automap Destination Europe - Microsoft Automap Destination Golf - Microsoft Automap Destination Campground

SYMPTOMS

When printing from Automap Road Atlas, Pro, or Streets to a Hewlett- Packard (HP) LaserJet 4 series printer, “Print Overrun 21” appears in the printers display.

CAUSE

The LaserJet 4 printer driver is set by default to use the HPGL/2 graphic language. This language is used to download images to the printer for rendering onto paper. Some images are too complex to print using this language, and therefore cause the printer to generate this error message. For more information, please refer to the Hewlett- Packard printer manual or the Help for the printer driver.

RESOLUTION

Change the printer graphics language to Raster as follows:

  1. From the File menu, choose Print.
  2. Select the LaserJet 4 series printer and click Setup.
  3. Choose Options.
  4. Change the setting for Graphics from HPGL/2 to Raster.
  5. Choose OK. Choose OK again, and then choose Close.
