Problem printing Acrobat.pdf files get a VMerror error. Upgraded to Mac OS X10.10 Yosemite

[JAJ70]

I really need to be able to print Acrobat.pdf files and printer window indicates pdf is being sent to the printer. Printed a test page and Word documents but not Acrobat.pdf.

Test page indicated I have Driver Name: HP338_6PPD and Driver Version: 19.8.. I have had this printer for over 10 years and it has performed very well.  Other than I can't scan anymore it has never failed to print a document.  Does Adobe need to address this problem?

Welcome back to the community, @JAJ70 

I read about the "VMerror" error you are seeing when attempting to print PDF files. Although this may be an issue with Adobe, I do have some links and suggestions for you to look into.

I would suggest a power reset:

Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.

I am unsure of which printer you have however, check for a firmware update:

4. Re-add the printer

It worked.  It did a shutdown of the computer and printer restarted the computer and then the printer.  Made sure the printer was my default printer and the printer printed the pdf I needed. 

Thanks for your help.
