Framemaker8 won't generate a PS file

On a book that I've been working with for months without issue, suddenly I can't seem to get a PS file (via Print Book). FM doesn't indicate any errors and the print action itself seems fine - it cranks through each document and reaches 100%. Everything looks fine, except there is no trace of a PS file.

I haven't changed any of my print settings, and here's what I've tried so far: 1) copied the book and all document files from the network to a local drive - this has worked before but has no effect this time). 2) Re-created the book from scratch (no help). 3) Rebooted, restarted, etc...4) Asked a co-worker to print the book, he WAS able to create a PS file without problem. This has cost me an entire day's work, and I've had it. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    What printer driver are you trying to use to generate the PostScript?
    Can you print from other applications to that printer?
