consumer multifunction devices are notoriously poor in function -- it would not greatly surprise me if PgS is creating a print job it can't deal with. I haven't used PgS on Windows long enough I don't recall if it invokes the system print requester or generates its own print jobs. Things to check: make 100% sure it is using correct printer driver if at all possible, have it use a postscript driver failing that, a PCL driver If it doesn't even use PCL I'd replace it (unreasonable IMO to expect a non-postscript and non-PCL printer to have any real functionality) If it is a "windows only printer" I'd replace it (unreasonable IMO to expect a printer that is virtualized on the PC to have any real functionality) In any case, if you save as PDF you can print from a PDF viewer as other apps can print. If you print to a postscript file any good PDF viewer can load that for viewing and consequently printing. Sure, either of the last two add an extra step -- one of the "advantages" of using a "multi" function device is reduced functionality in all of the functions it claims to have. Multifunction devices are poor scanners, copiers and printers. I suppose they operate tolerably well as fax machines.
