Hi all,

I am getting an interesting error trying to print PDF files on a Windows 2000 SP3 terminal server. It seems to be the same error that others [http://groups.google.com/group/adobe.acrobat.reader/browse_thread/thread/8e6d770d8f52837b/e5592971cf2cda73] have experienced.

Basically, what occurs is that printing the PDF file as a regular (non-admin) user results in a file being created (hpcolorLaserJet5550). If the PDF file is opened from a non-network (ie, local) drive, it prints OK. If an admin user (ie. administrator) opens the PDF file, it prints OK regardless of where the file is (ie. local drive or network). Non-PDF files located anywhere print OK by anyone.

As a workaround, I've asked my users to copy the file to the c:\temp dir for printing but I'd really like to figure this one out.

Any ideas?
A.
