Rod,

If what Richard suggested doesn't work, try installing a printer with a 
PCL5 driver in case Windows 10 changed the drivers for the printer.  
Even if it's a printer just for this type of printing and not for normal 
Windows printing.  If your printer is an HP printer, many printers can 
be substituted if you're just printing a hard copy.
