    Hi jeff229,

    Are you printing from an Adobe application? If so, which one? Are you able to print from other applications?

    Best,

    Sara

    I can print a word document with no problem. It is only when I print a pdf in either reader 9 or reader 11 . I either get a very poor quality image, or totally distorted [unreadable] or large block vertical lines about 1/3 inch wide along the whole page.

    This seems to come up sometimes.  Here is a very detailed discussion, but at the end is a configuration file entry that might be simple to fix (or not): /usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstocupsraster failed | Apple Support Communities
