On my new HP laserjet 2055d on large pdf files I get print failure; device error; page too complex. Any suggestions?

-How about try this:
-Go to the printer file. Delete all printing job in the spool.
-Then if any cancel button on the printer. Press couple times to cancel and than now try to print a job see what and how it'll do.

Good Luck

see HP LaserJet Pro Printers Memory is Low message displayed on the control...

HP LaserJet Pro Printers - 'Memory is Low' message displayed on the control panel HP LaserJet Pro - Troubleshoot 20.xx (memory failure) and 21.xx (print failure) error messages (ID: emr_na-c05049204)
HP Customer Support page and ensure the printer is running the latest available firmware. Print a Configuration Report from the control panel of the printer to check the installed firmware version.

If the printer supports expandable memory, you can install additional memory in the form of a DIMM. Check the printer's User Guide to see if it supports additional memory.

Break complex print jobs into smaller jobs that contain fewer pages.

If the printer is an MFP, delete stored faxes to increase available memory. Go to this document for instructions: HP LaserJet Pro MFP - Delete faxes from memory (ID: emr_na-c03264743)

Power cycle the printer to delete stored fonts or macros. It is possible to download fonts or macros in a way that power cycling the printer will not delete them; see Appendix A - Memory Allocation.

Changing some software and/or print driver settings might result in a less complex print job.

Use a different print driver. For example, a PostScript print driver will typically result in a more complex print file. If possible, try sending the file with a PCL6 or UPD printer driver.

Adobe PDF files can sometimes be very complex. Go to this document if printing PDF files is slow or resulting in memory out messages: HP LaserJet - Print job is slow or hangs in the print queue when printing Adobe PDF files (ID: emr_na-c04071740)

If the printer is connected via a network, try sending the file connected by USB cable only. This will eliminate possible network issues that are taking printer memory.

Appendix A
Memory Allocation Utilities or jobs that you download to the product sometimes include resources (for example, fonts, macros, or patterns). Resources that are internally marked as permanent remain in the product memory until you turn the product off.
Use the following guidelines if you use the page description language (PDL) ability to mark resources as permanent. For technical details, see an appropriate PDL reference for PCL or PS.

• Mark resources as permanent only when it is absolutely necessary that they remain in memory while the product is turned on.
• Send permanent resources to the product only at the beginning of a print job and not while the product is printing.

NOTE: Overusing permanent resources or downloading them while the product is printing might affect product performance or the ability to print complex pages.

I would try what is suggested by EastTXTechDoc here... http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Printers-LaserJet/LaserJet-Pro-400-M401dn-79-SERVICE-ERROR/td-p/6415530#.U6xCBdIg__8

If you are getting 49.XXXX error codes while printing PDF files, you can try upgrading the machines firmware.
This seems to be a common "PDF file printing" problem with the LaserJet 4250.

Go to this link .

Open Printer options and reduce the print quality. It is probably 1200dpi. Make it 600 and try the print again.
You may also add more printer memory to print complex documents on highest resolution possible.

Hi! I will be glad to assist you. If this is your issue, here are the steps you need to do:
HP LaserJet P3005 Printer Series - Service Error 49.0E00 when Printing PDF Files from Mac 10.5
Issue
A Service Error 49.0E00 message appears while printing PDF files from Mac 10.5 with the EconoMode setting enabled from the printer control panel and using the printing presets with the EconoMode setting disabled.
Solution
Recommended action:
Disable the EconoMode setting from the printer control panel (the default setting is OFF ).
Select printing presets with the EconoMode setting disabled.
Try performing a test print from PDF files in the computer to check for the results.
NOTE: If it is required to use a printing preset with the EconoMode feature turned off, ensure that EconoMode is set to OFF from the printer control panel also.

It might be a case of the printer software you have may not be compatible with the version of the operating system on your new iMac. Check http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00341096/c00341096.pdf for information.

The problem is usually caused by printing a PDF file with fonts/page size/ page formating errors which will cause the printer to display the 49.3048 error. The only way to use the printer is to POR or recycle the power and delete the print job from the server or spooling device and cancel it on the printer before the offending command is issued to the printer again. You can try updating the firmware to the latest version 46.140.5 from the HP website. MIke L.
