fwiw, we regularly find that output from some-free-acrobat-
reader-or-other has seized up a printer.

100-\epsilon% of the time, reprinting using acro reader solves the
problem.

(of course, some users learn, so over time the incidence of the problem
tend to decrease.)

the plus side is that it maintains demand for technicians ... something
the university would really rather not contemplate.

robin in cambridge, a university run by loonies, as with so many
universities nowadays :-(
