Printing suddenly broke for me on upgrading to Monterey.
Anyone else seeing this?
---
PDFs that previously printed fine no longer print - they give a postscript error.
Big Sur also introduced postscript problems - which I think were resolved with updates.
I use a true postscript printer so the drivers don't really do anything - apart from toner levels etc. The OS just sends postscript/pdf over the IPP protocol to the printers which has a true postscript engine to render it and print it. This is why I have has almost zero problems with printing over 2 decades from Linux, Windows, MacOS, BSD, etc ...
With the Big Sur upgrade I worked with Xerox for a month diagnosing the issue and it turned out to be a MacOS issue.
