PCL printers (HP) will generally print pdf files using Adobe Acrobat Reader
fine. Sometimes though all the text will run together, in which case one
needs to switch to a PS printer. Most (if not all) of the newer HP printers
have both PS and PCL (6 and 5e).

I doubt seriously that a non-PS printer will be able to do much with
PDFs, since the PDF format can be considered a form of compressed
PostScript. Agree that storing materials in PDF format -- if one
properly embeds the fonts!!! -- is much preferable to sending the same
file around in .ps format, which is much larger than optimized PDFs.
