    Say it aint' so.


    I just checked for new updates and there's one that I can install - KS5001648. I'm almost scared to install it.

      UP date. Your can download the KB5001649 but your have to use EDGE to download it. You can then run it and install and it fixes the problem.

        I just downloaded the new update. Mine is KS5001648. I guessing that it's "48" as opposed to "49" because of the different version of Windows 10 that I'm running. Anyway, I'm still able to print with no problem after the update.

          Windows 10 printer glitches: Microsoft issues second out-of-band patch

          Microsoft's latest update should finally address BSODs and incomplete printouts.


          icrosoft's second out-of-band patch for Windows 10 printer issues attempts to clear up an inadvertent printer mess that started with the March Patch Tuesday update.

          In 2021 enough people and businesses are still buying and using printers for Microsoft to take swift action when things go awry. Over the past two weeks, Windows 10 updates have caused users a range of problems, affecting their PCs and printouts.

          On March 15, Microsoft released an out-of-band fix to address a printer issue stemming from the Patch Tuesday update that was causing Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) crashes on Windows 10 machines.


          That update was supposed to address the BSODs, and it appeared to have done the trick for some. But since then, more reports have emerged that some Windows 10 PCs are still getting snagged on printer-related BSODs.
          The BSODs were caused by certain printer drivers, Microsoft explained.

          And as reported by Borncity

          "Affected devices might receive unexpected results when printing from some apps or to some printers. Issues might include missing or solid color graphics, misalignment/formatting issues, or printing of blank pages/labels," Microsoft states.

          Fortunately, Microsoft has expedited a fix and delivered the second out-of-band update for March, 2021.
          These updates are available for Windows versions 20H2, 2004, 1909, 1809, 1607, and 1507.
