[Identified] Microsoft recently released two patches, KB5005565 and KB5005566, to address an operating system vulnerability known as "PrintNightmare". On Windows 10 machines that are under self management (this also includes laptops), the problem has occurred that no connection can be made with the Nikhef printers. Uninstalling these patches should fix the problem, but this is also a security risk. If you are unable to print from your device, our advice is to temporarily email your print jobs to print@nikhef.nl until Microsoft releases a new patch that fixes the problems.
