Good day, I am receiving this error when I try to print a
test page on a Network Printer. The full error message
is ...

"Test page failed to print. Would you like to view the
print trouble shooter for assistance? The data area
passed to a system call is too small."

Would anyone know what I should do to resolve this problem?


Thank you
Teka

In case there is port corruption, you may also want to delete the printer,
remove the port in the registry, and try re-creating it again.
