Solution
I read the link not surprising that a windows update is causing this issue. Looks like MS is trying fix this issue with V4 drivers but some older printers will never have V4 drivers only V3. I backed up all my files so I will install this update reluctantly. Most of the updates had not issues in the past but one 19.04 build. Which I figured out was due to my Nvidia GPU drivers. The 19.09 build had no such issue.
