Classic printing error -8927

Hello,

Printing on my HP P2015 printer via lpr works ok. But randomly I get error -8927 in the printmonitor and can't print anymore from Classic. Printing from OSX is no problem and restarting Classic solves the problem for a while.
I can't find out what this error means, so could anyone help me with this to correct the problem?

Thanks.

Powerbook G4, Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Just some extra information: I myself use 10.4.11 on my Powerbook. I am using Classic on 10.3.9 eMac, because 10.4 installs an osx printer everytime classic is started and my old os9-application doesn't know how to print via appleevents.

Thanks.

Excuse this delay and if that's still happening, try increasing the memory allocation for Print Monitor, which lives in System Folder>Extension…

Select Print Monitor then use File>Get Info… Memory and at least double both Minimum and Preferred sizes.

Merry christmas
