Can't print a PDF...
Hi there: For some reason I cannot print a PDF (on the second machine listed below) from Acrobat Reader to the Laserwriter on the minimal network. The print dialogue shows the file spooling to the printer, the green light on the printer starts blinking, then everything resets as though the job is done...but nothing actually printed. I can print everything else to it (web pages, documents, etc.), and I can print PDFs to a direct-connected inkjet printer. This has just started happening in maybe the past month or so. Any ideas? As usual, my thanks in advance! *** Bill Spencer in Maryland IMac Core Duo 2.4 ghz/2 g RAM/Snow Leopard IMac Core Duo 1.83 ghz/1 g RAM/Snow Leopard -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

Check your console log for error messages. Try printing from Preview. Uninstall that abomination, er Adobe Reader, and try a much older version. ...I've had all sorts of problems like this with recent versions of Reader. @#$% crapware. My fav now is tax forms that print fine from Preview but crash Reader... - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

I'm curious to know the difference between your minimal and direct-connected networks. -- Terry McCune I couldn't when I clicked Preview from the Acrobat Reader print screen (got a message saying Preview is not supported), but I took Dan's advice and uninstalled the Adobe reader, then opened the PDF directly in Preview and everything's fine. I'll just stick with Preview, then. And the minimal network just means two computers and a wireless router. The direct-connected bit means the printer is hooked up directly to this machine and is not on the network (except as a shared printer). Thanks all!
