I was having the same problem of not being able to print from Adobe Reader. I have two printers on my network. One is a networked HP laserjet printer. Printing from Adobe Reader to the HP laserjet printer works just fine. I also have a USB Epson inkjet printer, which is shared on the network through one of my desktop Macs. Trying to print to the Epson printer from Adobe Reader did not work. I monitored the communications between the origination print queue (on the computer where the PDF file resides) and the destination queue (on the computer that is sharing the Epson printer to others on the network). I noticed what appeared to be proper communications between the origination and destination queue and the PDF file appeared to be successfully transferred to the destination queue. However, the PDF file was never sent to the printer from the destination queue...the destination queue would just empty without any notification that the PDF file never got sent to the Epson printer.

After investigating the printer configuration settings within the Adobe Reader Print... dialog box, I was able to come up with a workaround that allowed me to print from Adobe Reader to the USB Epson printer. Within the Print... dialog box for the selected printer, select the following:

Print...->Advanced... button->Print as image check box

After doing this, I was able to print PDF files from Adobe Reader to the USB Epson inkjet printer from two Mac computers that previously were unable to do so.

Let me know if this works for anyone else.
