This is symptomatic of what personal experience has shown me with the
HP LaserJet II, namely, it doesn't have enough memory to store the whole
page in its memory.  The HP LaserJet II, without memory expansion, would
only handle about 65% of a page at 300dpi.  The HP DeskJet can also be
memory expanded, and so maybe this is your problem.  Perhaps if the
printer driver supports a lower resolution, say 150dpi or 75dpi, you
could then print a full page with the memory the DeskJet does have.  Also
note that any fonts downloaded to the DeskJet (assuming you can download
fonts) would also consume memory.
