    Thanks to everyone for the info. Removing those windows security updates sorted my problems out with Epson dot matrix printers. Hope you guys get sorted as well

    Is there a way to prevent Win 10 from doing this update? Has microsoft done a patch for this as yet?

    Also:
    After installing this update, some Epson SIDM and Dot Matrix printers cannot print on x86 and x64-based systems:

    Microsoft and Epson have determined the cause of the issue and are working on a solution. This problem is not related to the printer driver, so installing current or older print drivers will not resolve the issue.
    Microsoft will provide an update in an upcoming release.

This I believe stops it installing again until a fix is created. Hope this helps.

    follow the same steps, the printing can back to normal, thanks
