"An error occurred while printing." with Easy PhotoPrint Editor

[Heib]

Hello,

Using the Canon PRO-300 with Easy PhotoPrint Editor. Printed several photos just fine, however now I receive an error message "An error occurred while printing." when attempting to print anything. No additional info given. The Canon printer seems to be receiving info because it begins to process the paper, but then it just spits out the paper blank.

I am able to print from GIMP program as a test which works with no problem, so the printer appears to be fine.

I've uninstalled Easy PhotoPrint Editor & reinstalled. I've deleted the Canon printer and reinstalled. I've rebooted my PC. Rebooted the printer.

This seemed to start after I re-registered my printer on Canon website because it was sending into to my Brother brand printer the 1st time which concerned me, I've uninstalled my Brother printer which didn't help. (When first installed, I had no problem using both printers.)

I also updated the firmware on the Canon printer immediately after receiving the error message, which reported as successful.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

There is an update due from Microsoft that may fix it. Check updates and see if there are any that you can install.

Check to see if any windows updates are still left to do as a full update has since been released, other than that try to install update again.

Ok, so I tried the "solution" and it still didn't work. Called Microsoft support and he went remote on my computer, installed a cumulative update, uninstalled the latest update of Windows 10. Finally the Easy photo print program is working again! 

The problem started when I updated the Easy photoprint software through the app. Whatever you do, don't click that update button there! 2 days of annoying computer troubleshooting!
