Chris -- is Flash now leaving excessively large post-script files on
your computer when you try to print? check the directory:
/var/spool/cups/
for ~500-900mb .ps files
you can also do an automatic check with the command:
sudo du -ak --exclude=/home/* / 2> /dev/null | sort -n | tail -30
Adobe insists they can't reproduce the problem, so the bug is a
non-issue for them.

So, I go into system-config-printer and set the CUPS PDF driver as the default printer. I click on "print" again. Regardless of whatever printer I select, the job goes to the CUPS PDF driver.
