The Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1903 KB4517211 is causing the printer spooler service to stop and the installed printer is no longer recognized. It is an HP Officejet Pro 8210 printer. When I go into services.msc I can start the spooler and my printer then reappears but as soon as I try to print the spooler service stops. If I uninstall update KB4517211, my printer again works.
Secondary Concern: I have temporarily halted windows updates to avoid KB4517211 from again downloading. How to I stop this update from installing permanently since I will have to resume updates at some juncture.

I don't see the issue I am having as a known issue with the recently released KB4517211 update. Also, to date, I don't see anyone else reporting having the same problem so how will Microsoft address it with a fix if they don't know about it? Does some from Microsoft monitor this forum?

Sorry to tell you that you cannot skip the KB4517211 permanently. Please try your best to stop it to install. You can uninstall it again or make a restore point by windows backup in advance. In case it installed again automatically, you can use system restore to back date it . System restore will NOT make change of any user files and safe to use.
Yes, You are right that the recent updates of the 1903 series has a lot problem:

Microsoft is working hard to making a fix to the known issue and will deploy a new update to overwrite the problem. The release date is not known yet, but it should be soon in a reasonable time.
