Maybe the Samsung C1810 is a postscript printer. Postscript printers 
create a PS file and then send it to the printer.

By the way, I could print a Word file with no problem. Now can print normally after rolling back to Windows 10 before the Friday night/Saturday morning “update”. So what can I do to repeat this bad behavior when another Windows 10 update comes down the pike?
