Printer problem - Deskjet 930C & Officejet G95

I was asked to fix some problems in a small intranet that runs os X server and imac g5`s. The problem im experiencing is with two of our printers:

#1 Deskjet 930C - This printer is connected via USB to a airport base that shares it to the network using Bonjour. The printer pops up for our network users and everything seems fine, untill i try to print something and the print assistant launches. It tells me that all jobs have been stopped. Trying to start them does not help.

#2 Officejet G95 - Connected via USB to one of the IMACS that shares it to the network, same as above. Network users can see the printer, but when they try to use the printer they get a error saying all jobs have been stopped.

I tried connecting the printers manually to my G4 laptop, and print directly. I can only make the deskjet 930c work like that. Downloaded ghostprint and installed drivers for G95, now i don`t get the error saying jobs are stopped anymore: now nothing happens.

We also have some print queues that work just fine, network printers that is with gimp print and printservices on the xserver we got. Also, the G95 ad deskjet printers used to work. This problem has just appeared lately.

What could be wrong?

I have been using photoshop CS2 and then saving the photos as jpeg and psd. I usually put these photos back into iPhoto and recently while printing it will state that I am using a non-post script printer. The result of the type is jagged as if Adobe type manager/or similar software is not been used. Prior to the past few weeks I had smooth print. Photosmart has the correct driver and PPD version. How do I get back to getting post script/true type print?
