When ever I get try to print from either my Epson 870 at home using usb or any of my network printers at work ( HP 8150n or HP 4000)
It spools up, shows the job name in print center and then drops the job.
I have been on the phone with apple twice now and we are unable to pin this down.
I need to be able to use at least my epson and the HP 8150.
I have tried to delete the printers from the list along with the user preffs and I even wenat as far as to download the drivers from the HP site and they will not install, it just freezes on the progress bar.
Any ideas??

Re-install the drivers for the printer. Install the 2 Epson ones from the second CD.

You shouldn't need anything special for your Epson. Did you install the Epson 2 Package when you did an install? If not it's on the second CD I believe. It has the drivers for the older Epson Printers. I installed that and my 870 prints fine. I even got back the ability to print at 2880.

I'm encountering a curious, rather frustrating problem with my install of Panther.
Printing for all printers -- USB and network -- works OK, but double-clicking on a printer from the Printer Setup Utility doesn't. It doesn't launch the little printer app (or Dock printer, as some call it) like it's supposed to, and there's no way to see the queue for a given printer, or control its jobs.
Have fixed permissions; have installed the Print Aid package from allosx.com; have tried deleting print center plists and caches; have removed and added printers over again. Have even tried checking this problem out w/ a new user. Same problem. Printing works OK, but double-clicking to show queues doesn't.
Any advice...? I'm just puzzled on this one.
I did an archive & install from 10.2.8.
Printers involved: Canon S820, Canon Fiery 3000, HP LaserJet.
