Issues trying to print to Adobe PDF

Question

I've got several users who are trying to print Word docs, browser pages and .jpg images to PDF files. In one case, the user tries to create a PDF file with a collection of .jpg images from his camera. He's prompted to create a file name and location, as he normally would. When he clicks on Save, the dialog box goes away. Yet, no PDF file was created. Another user is trying to print to Adobe PDF from an IE 11 browser. He clicks on Save and gets the following error message:

Again, clicking Yes yields no PDF file being created. A third person is trying to print a Word doc to PDF, doesn't get an error message but no file is created. I also tested with one of these users creating a test file in Notepad. When I tried to print it I got the following error message:

If anyone has any ideas or solutions, it would be much appreciated.
