Thanks everyone, but it gets Curious & curiouser!

I did a few tests (all with Windows 7)

Word ==> printer OK
Word ==> PDF ==> printer OK
Firefox ==> AOL email ==> printer NOT OK (500+ pages)
Firefox ==> AOL email ==> PDF NOT OK (500+ pages)

Chrome ==> AOL email ==> printer OK
Chrome ==> AOL email ==> PDF OK

So the shadow of doubt seems to hover over Firefox and not AOL as I suspected.

That's interesting. Is there anything in Firefox's print settings that could be causing your problem?

To add to my previous post, all the successful tests I made with AOL email were using Firefox.
