Yes, I had to remove using the script in the install directory and
re-install.  I don't get it at all - what's even more ODD is that one of the
macs could print - JUST ONE out of 8 machines that I tried.

I'm also getting postscript errors from Acrobat 4.0 - but that's probably
unrelated :)

Did you really mean reinstalling?  Restarting papsrv I could understand.
Even rebooting the machine would make some kind of sense, but what
re-installing could do is beyond me.
