Build 16288.1 printer problems

Hi.

Build 16288.1 doesn't recognize any of my printers.

I've left a couple messages regarding this on the feedback hub but didn't hear back. Hopefully someone here can help. 

 Here's a screenshot of errors when I print to two devices:

1- Epson printer

2- pdf

The status of the Epson printer  is "Driver is unavailable".

The troubleshooter 'couldn't identify the problem'.

When I try to update the driver, Windows says the best one is installed.

The problem is resolved by reverting to build 16278.
