Print Management Console Script error?

For the last couple of days I get this error when accessing printer properties or just selecting a printer in the print management console:

Anyone else having this issue?  Selecting yes or no has the same effect, i.e., none that I can tell.

I manage several print servers from the management console so looking in my workstation devices and printers isn't the answer. (seemed to be the answer of choice from a similar thread I saw and isn't applicable)

This update fixes the issue for current versions of Windows 10 (1903, 1909).

I just applied this and the Print Mgmt. Console is working again.

    I don't have that update installed on my PC, however I'm sure one of my Microsoft Updates is responsible. Thanks NinjaGeoff

    My update history couldn't find either of the updates listed in that thread, though they may have both been overwritten at this point.

    There's a few reports of removing updates working over on this Reddit thread. I'm not into all that, but I did poke around in the KB documentation and got lost.  https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/d3s1k5/print_management_script_error/

    There's a strong possibility it's a broken update! I just deployed a VM with the Windows 10 1809_v2 ISO, Pro version, and didn't do ANY updates, domain joined it, and added the print server to print management. I successfully selected printers with extended view without the script error. I'll start updates and see where it breaks.
