We have commercial copier/printers ranging from Kyocera, Canon, HP, Lexmark and Brother - with lots of memory and a solid Gigabit LAN infrastructure that I know isn't involved with the behavior I am seeing, yet this problem persists across all devices. There's nothing special about the environment they are using. The frustrating part of this is that my user base just does not understand or they complain about the extra steps involved to make it work. This almost always resolves the printing issues. The solution I've found, is to save the PDF to the computer and open it through Acrobat Reader directly. 90% of the users I support are completely computer illiterate, despite my best efforts to educate them (I train, I create user guides and walk-through's), they look at me with blank stares as soon as I try to explain the problem and offer the solution. When it comes to printing, most attempts to print the PDF directly from the browser always fail or only process the job partially. For years on multiple platforms, I always have problems reliably printing with browsers that use PDF previews/Web-embedded PDF's (particularly in Google Chrome, but also Safari and others). I provide IT support for over 100 people in 4 office locations and nothing infuriates me more than Adobe products. I realize this is a very old thread, but here's my observation.
