Elizabeth,

While you can mess about with reinstalling AdobePS 8.5.1, it will 
eventually install and print, using the Apple print driver will work 
fine.

If you do need to use the AdobePS, remember to remove all instances 
of the Apple printing drivers first, since, there is sometimes a 
little trouble installing over the top of them. AdobePS 8.5.1 and 
Apple drivers use the same names for the files that are unique to 
each. This WILL cause problems.

I recommend one of the following as cures.

1. Update to Mac OS 9.x

2. Update to FM 6.x

If you do the above, then you should be able to use AdobePS 8.7.
