404 Tech Support has an excellent How-To for deploying Adobe MSI and MSP via Group Policy here:
- 404 Tech Support: How to Apply Patches (.msp) to Group Policy Deployed Software (.msi)
We deploy the initial product MSI via Group Policy. We will be investigating the above procedures to update both the source MSI but also to deploy the subsequent MSP patches.a

On XP SP3 there is a problem with de default wanting to use dual side printing. Fix found from SANS is to add the following registry key
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\AVGeneral]
"iDuplexMode"=dword:00000001
However it crashes when I attempt to print on Windows 7. Tested on my standard laptop (64 bit) and fresh install on VMware test PC
Update on problems
1) Duplex (double sided printing) on Windows 7 as well.
2) Windows 7 Pro - Printing crashes when I print to network printers using the standard Windows TCP port. Tested on two PCs (one 64 bit one 32 bit) and two different printers (HP and Ricoh)
