Microsoft has released out-of-band emergency updates for Windows 7, 8.1, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2012 to fix printer issues arising from the March 2021 Patch Tuesday updates.
Now that Microsoft has ironed out the bugs in its recent Windows 10 OOB printing updates, they have now released versions of Windows’s older versions.
