My recommendation will require reinstalling the printers but I’ve had similar printing issues. This is how I fix them…
1. Stop print spooler service.
2. Open Regedit
3. Navigate to HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Print/ — Backup entire key in case the following breaks things worse than they currently are.
4. Under Environments, go to the correct architecture. Under Drivers/Version 3/, I delete them all.
5. Go back up to HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Print/
6. Under Monitors, I delete all keys. Under Pending Upgrades, I delete all keys. Under Printers, I delete all keys. Under providers, I delete all keys.
7. Restart spooler, add printer, try printing again.
