Another common issue Windows always had. I would suggest you begin by
uninstalling all printers on your system. Reboot to make sure they're
really gone, then reinstall them one by one if you have multiple
printers and keep your fingers crossed.
 
For information about installing, using, or troubleshooting problems with a
printer, go to the printer manufacturer's website. You can find the
manufacturer's website for your printer in the Printers folder.

1. Open Printers by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel,
clicking Hardware and Sound, and then clicking Printers.
2. Click the printer that you want to troubleshoot.
3. On the toolbar, click Go to the manufacturer website.
