Apple System X Printing Problem
This is not guaranteed, but give it a go. If it fails there are numerous OS X help sites on the Web, including Apple themselves.
Good Luck.

1. Log in as an Admin user (see Note 1 below).
2. Click the Finder icon in the Dock.

Or
B. Reinstall printer drivers.
1. Download and install the latest printer driver from your printer manufacturer's Web site.
2. If you cannot do this, follow the steps for an Apple printer as below. This will reinstall the third-party drivers included with Mac OS X.
1. Insert the Mac OS X 10.1 Install CD. The Welcome to Mac OS X window appears.
2. Open the Optional Installs folder.
3. Double-click the Additional Printer Drivers package.

Notes
1. The first user created on the computer is an Admin user, and others may be designated in the Users pane of System Preferences.
2. If an alert box appears that says you do not have access or privileges to move this folder, either you have not logged in as an Admin user or the permissions on that folder have been changed. In this case, start up from Mac OS 9 to delete the folder.
