Thank you Roy and Roger for your suggestions. Unfortunately, I
couldn't get anything working. It is interesting to note that after
tossing the 2200 from Print Center and reloading it (along with
fresh profiles) the printer started to respond. Print Center said
that the QUAD2200 was printing. It said that for about 5 seconds
and then it disappeared and nothing else happened.
I'm going to throw out and reinstall OSX 2.6 next. I hate doing it,
but it probably is a problem on that level. It is curious that it
would occur in both machines.
