Update KB973917, KB975929 and KB976264 Killed Network print

[Snorrason]

When I installed the updates on Vista SP2, the network print stopped working.

I have an old HP printer with an Axis 540 print server and a new Brother

DCP-375CW using Wi-Fi.

The printers are visible form the computer and can be found in add printers,

but no print job gets done, when I roll back the update, they work again.

There is no problem in printing from WinXP machines.



I have stopped using Windows update due to these problems.

Any suggestions on solving this odd problem?
