Hello, dear Forum-users!
(Wind. 2000 Pro, Fin. 2002a, HP LaserJet 6L)
I turn to you with a problem that to me seems to have come to me since I updated to Finale 2002a.
When I try to print my most ordinary score of 30 staves, 14 pages of showmusic on A4-size stock, it causes my printer to run out of memory and thereby I cannot print my score! 3 pages of score, then the printer runs out of memory (it appears like) and I have to turn the power off and then back on in order to get control over my printer again.
The graphic-file that is sent to the printer ends up on 4MB!! This is extraordinary big for this kind of score. Through my years as a part-time professional copyist I've printed many more "demanding" scores than this one, ON EARLIER VERSIONS OF FINALE without a hint of a problem.
Since I updated, this tends to happen on all scores of any size. Happily for my customers I can still print parts though...
I need help with thoughts on this instantly!
I make use of a typeface called AshMusic (which I'm very happy with). It has worked great throughout the years. I've tried to switch font, but the printingproblems remain.
I must also say that, SOME scores prints just beautifully also in Finale 2002a. It just makes me even more confused.
AND ALSO, if I set "Resize Page" to something like over 50% (making 3/4 of my particular score in mind invisuable on the print-out) it prints beautifully. If I turn back to 25%, the problem is back...
Thats the story in short.
I would like to know if someone have had similiare problems with Fin. 2002
Thanks!
P.S
I've attached the file that brings me the trouble. Please check it out to see if you encounter the same problems as I.

This has happened to me recently as well. (I have 2k2b). But it only happened after I got a new computer with Win XP, which made me think the problem was XP related. My workaround has been to print at 600 dpi instead of 1200. I plan to install more memory, as soon as I remember to do it.
