Windows 10: Not printing office documents after upgrading to windows 10

After upgrading to windows 10, my printer (HP color LaserJet pro M452dn) doesn't print Microsoft office documents from my account. Prints all other documents. It works with no issues from a different account on the same computer. I tried reinstalling the driver and all other stuff suggested by HP printer site. Looks like some user settings or temp files on my account is preventing me from printing office documents.

-Created a new account on the same computer. Printing without any issues from the new account.

-Changing UAC setting has no effect.

-Removed and reinstalled driver from HP website a couple of times. No luck.

-Removed and reinstalled office 365. No luck.

-Printing pdf and files other than Microsoft office files or pdf created from word without any problem.

-Other windows computers connected to this printer prints without any problem

-No error messages.

-Windows troubleshoot is useless

-'Print test page' prints a test page.

Looking for help.

HP Printer Doesn't Print MS Office Documents Windows 10

Thanks for the reply seahawks65.

I did those steps and it still doesn't print. When I tried to print the .XPS document to the XPS document writer, it opened a 'save as' window and wanted to save it as a .oxps file.

I can print PDF documents but those are printed from Chrome as Chrome is my default PDF application.

I have Office 2016 installed on the PC.

This has something to do with some update that was applied when I formatted my C: drive and reinstalled windows. I have never had this issue before with this PC or printer.

I have done all the steps you suggested numerous times. I have run the Microsoft fix-print issues tool and it reports everything is fine. I have also run the HP scan and print tool and it also reports all is fine.

I really believe this issue is directly related to that new entry "WSD Print Provider". I have never seen that before.

Hello Gifford,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will assist you in resolving the issue.



From the above description, I understand you are unable to print Excel documents on the computer running Windows 10.



Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

You will be able to print documents and web pages from the Printer if the device is online or showing working status under
Devices and Printers.

Also check if the printer is listed under Devices and Printers
by following the steps below:

• Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type Devices and Drivers and select the top most search result.
• Under Printers, check if the printer you are trying to print from is listed.
• If yes, print a test Excel document and check if the device works.
