This sounds like a reasonable problem.  I'm assuming you're talking 
about the memory of the printer itself, because it seems with 1.1GB of 
physical RAM that I have installed that a print driver (software) should 
be able to utilize enough of that memory to print it correctly.  So, 
alternatively a new printer might be able to handle the output better?  
Correct me if I'm wrong.  I just don't see the point of using TeX only 
to have the printed output quality compromised.

Thanks,
