The KEY question is exactly what "application" do you have printing to the PostScript driver? And tell us something about the images.

The problem sounds like multiple images are being "stitched together" either by the application, GDI, or the driver. This often occurs with Microsoft Office applications when dealing with images with transparent backgrounds, for example.

By the way, there is no Adobe driver for Windows 2000. The driver delivered as part of both Windows 2000 and Windows XP is actually a joint effort of Adobe and Microsoft. Adobe does deliver a driver installer that allows an alternative way of creating PostScript printer driver instances simply by associating PPD files with the driver instead of using the somewhat Byzantine "Add Printer" wizard that requires predefined .inf files, etc.

Note also that PostScript is indeed device dependent. Using a PostScript driver instance setup for a Docutech will likely lead to PostScript that is inappropriate for creation of a general-purpose PDF file. You might lose color in your images, for example. You may end up with page margins. And you certainly won't have the ability to define arbitrary custom page sizes up to Acrobat Distiller's limits.
