Outlook 2007 on Windows 7 64 Bit "There is a problem with the selected printer"

I have done quite a bit of research and found a few fixes one is removing a known buggy update however the update is not installed already. When printing any email from outlook 2007 i get an error stating that " There is a problem with the selected printer. It may need to be reinstalled." I have reinstalled them and it didnt work. Any ideas?

Oh fyi it does this with all installed printers. and windows will print fine just outlook has this problem
So then, a couple more things to try:

1. Try an Office Repair. Go to the Trust Center, Privacy options, and select (check) the option to download a file from Microsoft periodically. Then Help, and run Diagnostics. Make sure Office is at SP3 and patch. Restart and check.

2. Try a different Windows userid. It may be profile related. See if that changes anything.
