Printing Dynamic Form Data Loss

I have a PDF that I created using Acrobat 4.0
I took an existing Word Document and created a PDF from it.
I then went in and added form textboxes to the new PDF.

On my web site I have an ASP page that writes an FDF file that reads data from a SQL Server database and populates the acrobat fields in the PDF on the browser (IE w/Reader 6.0 ).

this setup has been working for years (since back when Acrobat 4.0 was the latest version). I recently added a few more pages to the PDF file and now I'm encountering problems.

When the PDF opens in the Browser w/Reader 6.0 it displays all 16 page like I expect. The Data is visible on the pages. However, when I print this I get unexpected results. Some fields are left blank. If I print the same form multiple times, the fields that are left blank are not consistent. Some whole pages of dynamic data are left blank, some pages are half populated, etc.

Can anyone think of why this might be happening?
