That printer model has very limited memory. Most likely your documents 
are using fonts that are not built-in, and the printer runs out of memory 
while downloading the fonts. In documents you create, you can choose what 
fonts to use; for pdfs and web pages you may be out of luck.

If the message is something like printer not found, that's typical for 
LocalTalk Bridge. You just have to "try again".
