Microsoft has fixed a known bug that breaks the ‘Print to PDF’ feature on Windows 11 24H2 systems after installing the April 2025 preview update.
“Specifically, the Microsoft Print to PDF printer might no longer appear under Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners,” the company explains in updates added to support documents for Windows updates released since April.
“You might also notice that enabling the Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Feature returns error code 0x800f0922, which prevents the installation of the Microsoft Print to PDF printer driver located in C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository.”
The company says that the issue has been resolved in the KB5060829 preview cumulative update for Windows 11 24H2, released on Friday, with the fix to be made generally available to all users who will install the July Patch Tuesday updates later this month.
Those who don’t want to install the June optional update to address this issue are advised to enable the Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Feature feature manually.
To do that, you can enable ‘Microsoft Print to PDF’ from the Windows Features dialog by hitting the Windows + R keyboard shortcut and typing optional features.
Windows admins can also use PowerShell to enable it by opening Windows PowerShell as an Administrator by running the following commands:
Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Features
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Features
However, Redmond warned that using PowerShell to toggle on Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Feature may trigger an error with the 0x800f0922 code.
In March, Microsoft fixed another set of printing issues that were causing some USB printers to print random text after installing Windows updates released since late January.
Last month, the company also warned that the June 2025 Windows security updates might be delayed due to an incorrect metadata timestamp and rolled out a configuration update to address a known issue causing Windows Update failures on some Windows 11 systems.
