Does anyone know if there is any solution to this problem yet? I looked
around the Adobe and the Apple web sites yesterday and found nothing to
fix it. I'm kicking myself because I went from 7.6.1 to 8.5.1 and then
a week later 8.6 came out so I upgraded and ever since then I've not
been able to print from PageMaker. Since I only had 8.5.1 for about a
week I'm not sure if the problem exists with it also or only with 8.6.
From what I've seen on Adobe's User to User Forum the problem sounds as
if it's only with 8.6.

If anyone knows anything about this problem please contact me. I'm
about to go back to 8.5.1 though I hate to take all the time to do that
if it won't work. I know PageMaker is working fine in 8.1 because
that's what most all of our designers are using.
