Bryan,

Try setting up a minimal set of extensions and see if
you can find a configuration that lets you print.  Use
that extension set only when you want to run your
software.

Can you boot off an older OS CD and still see your HD?
 If that works, you can do so on occasions when you
need to run that software.  That might work.  You may
alternately burn a bootable CD that contains the
programs you want, if your HD disappears when you boot
to the earlier OS.

It's also possible to do a clean install of an older
OS and boot out of the older OS folder as needed. 
Just hide the Finder in the System folder you DON'T
want to run by dragging in into a sub-folder to
"de-favor" that System folder.  Then drag the Finder
from the other OS folder back out of it's hiding place
into the System folder.  REMEMBER not to shut down
unless one of the two folders is "favored" by having a
Finder properly located, or you'll have to boot off CD
to fix the problem.  Note, Apple recommends against
having multiple OS folders on one hard drive
partition, but I've done it successfully a number of
times.  Maybe one of the gurus can comment in more
detail as needed.
