Lo and behold a month later, a cumulative update undoes that almost spotless record. Microsoft\u2019s support forums are now filled with complaints from users suddenly unable to print on any brand of printer. Curiously enough, it even affects printers that are \u201cprinting\u201d a document into a PDF file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The culprit is update KB4557957 that was just rolled out last week. A seemingly harmless update that fixes issues, it brought along a bug that could put some offices at a standstill. Despite living in a digital world, many organizations and workflows still rely on good old paper and printed documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, Windows 10 users who already installed the update find that they are no longer able to do so. Rather than affecting only a specific brand or driver,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/microsoft\/windows-10-printing-breaks-due-to-microsoft-june-2020-updates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (\u03b1\u03bd\u03bf\u03af\u03b3\u03b5\u03b9 \u03c3\u03b5 \u03bd\u03ad\u03b1 \u03ba\u03b1\u03c1\u03c4\u03ad\u03bb\u03b1)\">reports are pouring in<\/a>\u00a0noting almost all kinds of printers being affected. Microsoft even notes that software-based printing to PDF will also fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/release-information\/status-windows-10-2004#436msgdesc\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Microsoft doesn\u2019t go into much detail<\/a>&nbsp;other than what users have already been reporting. The Windows 10 print spooler may error out or close, causing nothing to be printed. It might even take down the app that\u2019s trying to print, which could aggravate users who haven\u2019t saved what they were working on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, Microsoft is still on the \u201cinvestigating\u201d stage and has no official fix yet. Unofficially, users can download and install a different kind of driver called PCL6 for their printer to get it working again as simply reinstalling the stock driver won\u2019t do. Users can also try uninstalled the KB4557957 update if they\u2019re up to it but that also removes whatever bug and security fixes it installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slashgear.com\/windows-10-june-2020-breaks-printing-even-to-pdfs-14624718\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (\u03b1\u03bd\u03bf\u03af\u03b3\u03b5\u03b9 \u03c3\u03b5 \u03bd\u03ad\u03b1 \u03ba\u03b1\u03c1\u03c4\u03ad\u03bb\u03b1)\">slashgear.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The big May 2020 update for Windows 10 seemed to be relatively uneventful, aside from a few issues Microsoft was at least upfront about.
