Adobe Reader 9.1.3 Doesn't Print on Mac 10.5.8

Question

I have just installed an HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g printer.  It prints from every program I have tested, including Safari, Pages, and TextMate.  However, it does not print from Adobe Reader 9.1.3
I am running the most current version of Leopard, have run Software Update and updated everything, and have run Check for Updates in Adobe Reader (it reports that there are no  updates available)
I turned on debugging through cups ( http://localhost:631 ) and get the message:
E [09/Aug/2009:09:05:12 -0700] [Job 14] pstopdffilter/pstocupsraster failed with err number 13
D [09/Aug/2009:09:05:12 -0700] Discarding unused printer-state-changed event...

E [09/Aug/2009:09:05:17 -0700] [Job 14] Opening Printer Connection Failed: Unable to open the printer connection. Please check your printer connections and check for printer errors.
I am connected via wireless to the router, and then wireless from the router to the printer.  Again, every other program prints without problem, so it is not a connection problem
I had seen a post about problems printing with Reader that suggested opening the Preview mode, and then printing from that, but when I click the Preview button, I get the message "Preview is not supported".
My workaround (other than not using Reader!) is to click Print, then open the expanded Print Dialog (click on the little down arrow), click on Advanced..., then select "Print as image".  When I do that, it prints without problem.

To clarify my previous post, I had already seen http://forums.adobe.com/message/1770581 .  I mentioned in my post that I get the message "Preview not supported" when I click the Preview button from the print dialog in Adobe Reader, and thus concluded that the "Preview" workaround discussed in that thread wasn't helping me.
However, re-reading that post, they were talking about using the Mac "Preview" application to print the pdf file.  Like every other application (other than Reader) I have tried, the Mac's Preview application prints just fine, and is another workaround.
The only program that doesn't print for me is Adobe Reader.
BTW, I also have an Intel chip in my MacBook Pro.
Re-installing Leopard, as suggested by one post in that thread, is not a reasonable option for this problem.
In fact, since Preview allows me to view and print .pdf's , my solution is probably just going to be not to use Adobe Reader.  In fact, had I not been new to the Mac, I would have known that I didn't need Adobe Reader at all.
However, I'm glad this happened, in the sense that I use CS3 on the PC, and had considered moving to CS4 on the Mac.  However, since Adobe apparently hasn't figured out how to get printing to work on a Mac from their flagship product (!), I will be sure to do a lot of testing of CS4 before considering buying the upgrade.
