umm, doesn't a PAP job get temporarily spooled on to the linux box before it
goes through the filter and out to the printer, or something like that?
You might be running out of room on your /var or /tmp partitions?
Try a df and if one of those drives has about 256MB free than that MIGHT be
the
problem.
Ie. I'm just taking a wild guess here as I don't have time to investigate my
own theory.
