Microsoft acknowledges that after installing the November update on Win11/Win10, some Word documents cannot be printed
IT之家 November 13 news: Tech media BornCity today (November 13) published a blog post reporting that Microsoft has acknowledged that the November update for Windows 11 contains a bug that may cause some Word documents to be unable to print.
In terms of symptoms, the trigger conditions for this bug are relatively special: an image in the document has a rendered width or height of zero at the selected print resolution. Such images may not be visible to the naked eye; they may be used for watermarks or layout positioning, or may be inserted by document generation tools.
IT之家, citing the blog post, reports that when users print Word documents meeting the above conditions through the Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI), they may be unable to print, and this may affect the printing experience of other applications.
In terms of scope of impact, the affected systems listed in the report include multiple versions of Windows 11, Windows 10 21H2 and 22H2, some long-term servicing versions, and Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025.
In addition to the above bug, some users also had shared print jobs disappear for no reason after the update, recovering after restarting the server, but this is only an isolated case. It is worth distinguishing that the November update also fixed an old problem in which a "parameter error" occurred when adding a shared printer in an enterprise directory; this is not the same issue as the current document printing failure.
