I figured it out! I'm amazed because I'm not tech savvy. I was having thsi problem printing from PowerPoint. Before you print, click on Printer Properties and uncheck the box that says "Rely on system fonts only, do not use document fonts." Voila! It prints.

That option dates from about 1994 when those "font" things were embedded in printers. It needs to be unchecked by default, removed... or at least persistent! I have to remember to uncheck it (and "add doc info") every time I PDF from Word. Fortunately, InDesign has better PDF output... you should, by the way, never "print to PDF" from more modern apps that have direct PDF export.

Thank you!! Do you know if unchecking the fonts affects Framemaker? It didn't for a word doc but my company heavily uses Framemaker with specific fonts.

I had this issue here. In my case, it was about images with too long file path length. Shortened folders and filenames then all worked smoothly.

Here's another idea—it looks like it's giving up on page 9 or 10. You might try creating a PDF from the front of the book (say 1–8) and then the back of the book, say (10–end) and then try to isolate which page is causing the issue. You could recreate that one page.
