Microsoft November 2026 security updates cause printing failures for documents with zero-dimension images
Microsoft has announced that its November 2026 security updates may cause printing failures on Windows Server 2016 or later and Windows 10 or later client devices. The issue impacts printing of documents containing images with zero height or width values, commonly used in complex formatting such as invisible watermarks or layout anchoring. The printing failure primarily affects Microsoft Word documents printed via Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) but may also affect other applications. Microsoft is actively investigating and has acknowledged previous printing-related regressions in updates dating back to 2025, indicating ongoing challenges with printing compatibility after patches. Users should be aware of potential disruptions when printing complex documents following the latest updates.
