Now Microsoft has just confirmed the errors in the printing of graphics that occur after the March 9, 2021 cumulative updates. Here's some information about them.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Windows printing issues after March 2021 Update<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/vg08.met.vgwort.de\/na\/9f2f5b70f2e846418c0c314157c67563\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\">After installing the security updates from March 9, 2021 (and also from March 15, 2021) on Windows 10 (and older versions), users are facing printing issues. Depending on the Windows variant and environment, this ranges from no longer being able to print, to BlueScreens when printing or calling applications from LibeOffice or Microsoft Office. Microsoft itself has confirmed the problem and has released special updates to fix it on March 15, 2021 (see <a href=\"https:\/\/borncity.com\/win\/2021\/03\/16\/windows-10-out-of-band-update-for-blue-screen-printing-bug\/\">Windows 10: Out-of-band Update for Blue Screen printing bug<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>But what has gone under the radar on many other websites: Since installing the March 9, 2021 security updates, users have been telling me about errors in graphics printing. This ranges from Dymo Labelwriter label printer printing only blank labels to white stripes, missing graphic parts, etc. when printing graphics. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/etguenni\/status\/1371977870269161474\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Windows 10 March 2021 Update graphics issues\" alt=\"Windows 10 March 2021 Update graphics issues\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/fYCe9Yg.png\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I had summarized these issues&nbsp; in the blog post <a href=\"https:\/\/borncity.com\/win\/2021\/03\/17\/windows-10-weiterhin-probleme-mit-der-druckausgabe-mrz-2021\/\">Windows 10: Still printing issues after update installation<\/a> and escalated the English-language version to Microsoft via <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/etguenni\/status\/1371977870269161474\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> and as a community moderator within the <a href=\"https:\/\/answers.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/forum\/all\/march-9-2021kb5000802-os-builds-19041867-and\/39e4db63-9639-4e1e-945c-1f7596070b87\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Microsoft Answers forum<\/a>.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<h2>Microsoft confirms the issues<\/h2>\n<p>An anonymous German blog reader just reported in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.borncity.com\/blog\/2021\/03\/17\/windows-10-weiterhin-probleme-mit-der-druckausgabe-mrz-2021\/#comment-103078\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this comment<\/a> (thanks for that) that Microsoft confirms the bugs gathered in my blog post.
