    From what I have gathered so far:

    The issue is in the Windows "Point And Print" capability.
    Microsoft found a security vulnerability in Point And Print and have closed that in this last security update.

    Point And Print allows a user on a Windows 2000 and later client to create a connection to a remote printer without providing disks or other installation media. All necessary files and configuration information are automatically downloaded from the print server to the client. Point and Print technology provides two methods by which you can specify files that should be sent from the print server to the client machine:

    • Files can be associated with a printer driver. These files are associated with every print queue that uses the driver.


    • Files can be associated with individual print queues.


    Obviously I have my remote PCs set up to the printers on my main PC using the Point And Print method.
    This method, it seems, has been deprecated.

    I'm curious if the folks that have KB5005565 installed and have no remote printer issues have installed the printer drivers and/or the printer software on each of their remote PCs.
    Perhaps that is the fix.

    More on Point And Print here:
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/win...oint-and-print

    And this is the summary from the article I posted earlier describing the behavior after KB5005565:

    Summary

    Windows updates released August 10, 2021 and later will, by default, require administrative privilege to install drivers. We made this change in default behavior to address the risk in all Windows devices, including devices that do not use Point and Print or print functionality. For more information, see Point and Print Default Behavior Change and CVE-2021-34481.

    By default, non-administrator users will no longer be able to do the following using Point and Print without an elevation of privilege to administrator:

    • Install new printers using drivers on a remote computer or server
    • Update existing printer drivers using drivers from remote computer or server


    Note
    If you are not using Point and Print, you should not be affected by this change and will be protected by default after installing updates released August 10, 2021 or later.

    I started getting the KB5005565 on Sept. 14, so far no issue on 5 Wired Desktops and 3 Wireless/Wi-Fi Notebooks but my 2 printers [HP LaserJet and HP OfficeJet] are connected via Ethernet cable to the Router, not seeing any issues yet with printing.

    So what is the common thing that is causing problems with this update? My laptop has update KB5005565 and has no problems printing to my Wi-Fi connected HP printer.

    I'm just thinking out loud here, but it seems Berton has printers connected to the router, and MisterEd has a wifi printer.
    Neither is the same as printers connected to a PC.
    I'm thinking that is the configuration that would have the problem, especially in terms of the security concern.

    Hopefully we get some more input to narrow it down.

    Yeah, I just printed some pages from my Windows 11 laptop to my Epson XP-960 Wi-Fi printer. My 3880 is only used to print my photos and uses a lot of ink so I'm not testing that; but can confirm it prints from my desktop printer to which it's connected to.

    Bottom line no print issues here.

    Hello,
    I have 2 PCs and one HP 402dne printer that is connected to 1 PC with a USB cable, and that PC is also shared (otherwise 2PCs are on two desks in the same office) and of course everything worked until yesterday when there was an update.
    and since then of course it cannot be printed.
    I tried to uninstall the last update but it didn't work. then I deleted all the updates in the last month. but he installed KB5005033 himself, which can't be uninstalled and of course doesn't print again.
    I tried to add the printer via ip address, by entering the computer name and the printer name, I even added 2PC to the network location, and from there I went to the printer to try to connect, but it always throws me an oxoooo4oo5 error. I also had an oxooooo1b error but before the first uninstall of the update.

    How are you uninstalling the updates? Are you using the Control Panel?
    Windows Update > View Update History > Uninstall Updates > Control Panel Opens > Scroll Down and find update > select and Uninstall.

    It might be too late for that now, but the update uninstalled very easily in Control Panel for me. Not sure why it wouldn't for you.

    Do you have a recent disk image you can restore? One from before KB5005565 got installed?

    If not, how about a System Restore point?
