The problem is there is not enough disk space

 

The system stops because the hard disk is "full".

Some jobs make great demands on the storage capacity of the hard disk on the print server. Since all jobs are stored after they are processed, the hard disk may become "full" and not accept any new jobs.

 

Possible remedies

  • The quickest remedy is to delete jobs manually, making free disk space available to the system again (refer to How do I delete a job?). However, this can not really be seen as a permanent solution. You should at least use the notification system in conjunction with the drive monitor to be able to take steps in time before the hard disk becomes full.
  • Another option is to have jobs deleted automatically after a certain period expires.
  • You can find a detailed description of these two methods in How do I avoid space problems on the server?

  • By default, all data and directories are created in the same program directory during the installation of HP Designjet 50ps. This also includes the directory in which the files created during remote printing are stored (PdfExport). This shared directory can also be "moved" to other server drives where more space is available.
  • Important: You cannot do this simply by moving the directory in the Explorer. For a description, refer to the Administrator's Guide (First Steps) manual (available as a PDF file in the Documentation subdirectory on the server).
