Re: Microsoft shares workaround for Patch Tuesday printer crash bug
Printers are the most finicky snickety things at the best of times with "working" drivers. Dealing with swathes of 0x3e3 errors from time to time needing a full reload of print drivers on the print servers from time to time.
It's nuts, it should really be simple...
I like to be naive from time to time :P

MS should just adopt CUPS and be done with it.

My printer has 3 ways how you can connect it to the laptop, none is working perfectly, even with latest updates. Microsoft just helped to make a decision to buy a new one...and use Linux on one of the computers, just to be able to print stuff without suffering.

two days later, linux wrecks printing for a few days, returns to Windows. Yawn. "Wahh, linux!"
Just remove the darn update and you can print again.
