i've had a lot of Japanese made printers stumble on PDFs for some reason.

My Brother and Epson have both have trouble with printing old out-of-print machine manuals that used ancient PDF versions. They'd happily accept the job, and then proceed to crash the print spooler and more-or-less break explorer on more than one machine with the same set of drivers.

The problem would go away if I converted the pdf to a newer version or into an entirely different format.
