Print queue stops and win32 error code 259(0x103) in system log

I am using windows xp professional and have a network printer installed which
is going through a hp jet direct. After quite a few documnets print the queue
gets locked up and nothing else will print. I look in the system log and
this is what I see under error:

The document Crystal Reports - kstrip.rpt owned by Guest failed to print.
Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 259 (0x103).

I appreciate any insite you can offer

You want "insite" or "insight"? Are all your documents in *.rpt formats?
Your printing app may not support "rpt" files as printable files. Check the
setup for this system.

259 is generaly some network related error. Disable Bidirectional in print
properties ports tab

I Have the same problem with a network printer without having enabled
Bidirectional in print properties ports tab. I do not think that is there.
Is it possible that a windows update created this problem? Because I did not
have this problem till February 2007! Can anybody give me a solution on this
problem?

What print processor does the printer use?
Printer / Properties / Advanced / Print Processor

Note the name if it is not winprint, then change to winprint and see if this
resolves the issue. You may lose some formatting or special features
included in the vendor print processor.

What printer do you have anyway?
