the menu bar and select Print.

(Note: A large volume of temporary files on the computer can cause
communications errors.)

 Search for all folders called TEMP. Once found, clear out the
contents of the folders.
 If using Windows 98SE, Me/2000/XP, run the System Utility - Disk
Defragmenter found in the Accessories folder of the Start Menu.
 Use a disk cleanup utility (such as Disk Cleanup found in the
System Tools folder of the Start menu) or use a third party
application.
