Hi All,
Sometime during the updates from Tiger 4.6 to something more recent, I have developed a problem whereby anytime I try to print two documents in a row, the printing application crashes. This happens with Word, Firefox, and Safari, and probably anything else. Curiously, it doesn't matter whether I "save as pdf" or simply print to my computer.
I generally print wirelessly to an IBM Phaser 6120, but also to an HP 6210 all in one. (The network uses a Linksys WRT54G and Airport Xpress as range extender (listed as second network but actually the same one). But of course, printing to pdf is not using either of those printers, so I doubt it's the drivers or the wireless connection, especially since they didn't use to have this problem.
The only workaround is to quit after each print, and then restart the application. Obviously that is very tedious if you have several Word or Internet pages to print.
Does anyone know of this problem and how to work around it? Thanks.

Try this, but be sure to read it throughly and the caveats first.
