I found that installing Leopard lost my printer. Not a problem but a bit of a surprise.
 
Also lost my printer after updgrade...now apps crash when printing

Leopard upgrade also managed to wipe out my printer setup (Lexmark 9350 connected via USB).

However, after reinstalling from the Lexmark download site, apps now crash when trying to print. The crash occurs even when choosing to Preview the print job.

Right now, I'm at a loss as to where to go next. Suggestions appreciated.
 
My printer (HP Deskjet 6800) also vanished after the upgrade. I found it again via Bonjour and let Leopard install it. After Software Update ran the next time I was greeted with a "HP Printer Driver Update". Perhaps you could just let Leopard do the install, then check Software Update?

I did a clean install, not an upgrade but I can tell you that so far the X9350 seems to not be supported in Leopard.... hopefully Lexmark will get us new drivers soon! Their support for the Mac community is pretty good so I think it will be soon, it's a big seller for Lexmark (after talking with their tech support which is great by the way!)
