Look at the logic of what you just wrote: You are not executing the 
PRSetError command. :)

Other things to try:

	- Check the event record to see if the command key modifier 
and the period key were pressed during the last event or null event
	- Check PRERROR. Maybe the printer will tell you that this 
was canceled.
	- Look for some other piece of logic that will tell you when 
you can send the error message to the printer
