Thunderbird hangs when I try to print or print preview

Hi,

Since a fair while ago, I cannot print from Thunderbird. As soon as I click Print of Print-Preview, the program hangs ("not responding"), and I need to kill the process to restart Thunderbird. It also happens with add-ons disabled. Note that I don't even get to the point where I select a printer, so it can't be a printer issue.

Running Thunderbird 52.6.0 (32 bit) on Windos 10

Help appreciated!

Does resetting the printer make any difference? Tools/Options/Advanced/General/Config. editor, right-click the preference print_printer, Reset, OK to close Options, restart TB.

Cool, thanks, that works. I had actually seen that other post, but had misinterpreted what was meant with "reset printer". I think basically what I've done is "clear default printer".

Anyway, it works now!
