I've done several clean-ups and re-installations of the cups software,
and at this point, my browser printing is back to normal.  I can
print pdf files from Apple Preview, but cannot print them from
Acrobat Reader 6 or 7.  My error_log shows this condition:

As before, any suggestions would be much appreciated.
