You have probably been inundated with responses by now,
but in case you haven't, I will send a short response.

From your description it sounds as though you have used
this font previously on another printer.  When you try 
to initialize the font for more than one printer it wont let
you because the font can only be used on one printer.
Adobe sold fonts originally for useage in 1 or 5 printer
versions.  Once you consumed the number of uses, by
installing it on that number of printers, the font could
not be used again elsewhere.  That is the way they are made.
Today, I believe, Adobe sells fonts with no limits, that may
be used any number of times, but that doesn't help you.

In any event the invalid printer message means that there
are no more uses left in the font in question.
