I first noticed this 3 or 4 months ago. I was not very worried then, but now it is becoming a real problem, since some applications that rely on the "print" command no longer work.
If you try to execute "print" with any file or even any text followed after it, the next error is displayed:
"Unable to initialize device PRN"
This command is broken for everyone I ask to try, regardless of setup and configuration.
Is there a way to make it work like before - to show up the printer selection dialog?
Is this a bug in Windows, or some settings are messed up?
NOTE: seems like it also happens on Windows Server 2016 and 2008.
- Windows repair/reinstall didn't help.
- I remember executing it successfully for a while. But now it's gone and I believe it happened after some update.
