What is the status of the print spoiler service.?
Check eventlog  for possible reason
Which server OS are you on?
How are printers deployed to users?
try running sfc / scannow from an elevated prompt

ASKER

OS is 2016 Server Std
Eventlog shows no errors or anything else
Print spooler has been started as well as database for print spooler cleared
Run sfc with no fix
Have escalated to Microsoft and if they give us the resolution, we will post here
(if they fix it)
Run dism /online /cleanupimage //restorehealth
After you run checkhealth

Another thing to see whether the system is pending restart following updates install....
