I have a purchased application that uses the Adobe PDF reader for
print preview and then prints from the PDF.  The PDF appears to render
correctly for display, and will usually print properly for the first
few PDFs generated and printed.  Unfortuneatly, it starts printing
garbage eventually (sometimes the second printing).  The application
generates the PDF into a temp file and then displays/prints it from
within the application using some sort of API.  If I open the PDF
(which is left out on the drive after the printing) using the Adobe
reader application directly, it seems to print fine.  If I reboot the
PC and go back into the application, it follows the same pattern, ie..
 prints OK the first time (or first few times) and then starts to
print garbage again.

Any thoughts?

HP LaserJet 2300.  Adobe Reader 6.0.1 and 6.0.2 on XP operating system
with the printer using the Jet Direct card as a network printer.
