I just got an eMail back from another Mac users that I
installed rdesktop on.  She is on osx 10.6.6 and has no trouble
printing.  But, she uses a direct USB connected Epson printer.

The two problem Mac's are network (dnssd) sharred:

     HP Color LaserJet 2840 PCL 6
     HP Officejet 7500 E910

I tried creating a basic Postscript printer in CUPS.  That
crashes too.  But, the Postscript driver had to use the
same network connection to the Laser Jet as the 2840
driver does.  So, HP is off the hook.

So, this probably has someting to do with printing
to a network (dnssd) printer on the client's side.
Direct connected printers do not seem to have a problem.
