Actually, I think the probelm might be AWGS. They seem to like to push things
to their limits, which can be bad when it comes to working with future versions
of operating systems. Anyways, along your lines, I noticed that the new driver
also does not work correctly with the Spreadsheet under AWGS. It basically
attempts to print each row on a separate page, and considering by spreadsheet
had some 120+ rows, this wasn't very reasonable.
