Another interesting experiment would be to test the air worthiness of the printer given a second floor window launch.
Maybe not the wisest experiment, but I'd be interested.

It has been a while since I worked out an airspeed ratio.

An interesting experiment would be to create a new user account on your Mac and see if it can print to the Brother printer.
Worth a try, I guess, though S's computer has also lost the ability to print.

And actually, if I resort to reverting to an earlier state on my machine in an attempt to fix printing (eventually I *need* to update all the way to 10.5.3 in order to run ProTools), I won't be able to use the same fix on S's computer.
We don't have an external hard drive for her, so she has no Time Machine implemented.

The status is NOT quo.
It has been a while since I worked out an airspeed ratio.
I bet it's similar to the airspeed velocity of an unladen sparrow.

So, I did it. I'm in the middle of a system restore to about two weeks ago. I don't think I'll be losing any documents I can't replace, but I will have to reinstall some software. We'll see if printing just gets broken again. And if it does work, I'll have to figure something else out to fix printing on S's machine.

HA! System restore failed to fix printing. I'm currently 10.5.2, and I could print under 10.5.2. A test print just failed.

In terms of manipulating content of Acrobat file - Scan Soft - cheaper than Acrobat (well was when I bought mine - may have changed) and can do more - import into word, make changes, print back into adobe.

Heh. And since I don't have Word, and would have to open the .doc import with Pages, I now find myself wondering just how many different file types I can convert this file to.
