Reports of problems with HP printers after installing the second Sept Win10 1903 cumulative update, KB 4522016
From the Patch Management mailing list:
FYI: I installed the updated Sept 2019 Cumulative Update for Win10 x64 [1903] and it broke me printing to a network HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M180NW.
Since I also installed the Adobe Flash update, along with the .NET update for Sept 2019 at the same time, I thought it may be one of those, but through uninstalling all, and installing 1 at a time (Cumulative last) and testing printing between reboots, it was isolated to this update.
I have since uninstalled KB4522016 (the update with the IE Zero-Day patch) and installed the KB4515384 predecessor and all is well.
The problem’s been confirmed.
That’s the second problem I’ve seen with the stunted IE-only patch KB 4522016.
We’re still waiting to see if the third September cumulative update for 1903 will have the same problems.

Installing the Win10 1903 second Sept cumulative update, KB 4522016, prevents installation of .NET 3.5
Looks like our Keystone Kops patches are turning into bumper cars.
You may recall that MS has released “optional non-security” third monthly cumulative updates for all versions of Win10 except 1903. Presumably, 1903 will be blessed with its third cumulative update today.
I’m seeing reports on patchmanagement.org that installing the second cumulative update — you know, the one that’ll protect you from the big, scary, exploited, emergency-patched IE security hole CVE-2019-1367 — makes it impossible to install .NET 3.5.
Uninstalling KB 4522016, installing .NET 3.5, then re-installing KB 4522016 seems to do the trick.
