Q: Microsoft Office programs crash when I try to printing in Mavericks

I'm having a printing issue since installing mavericks. Everytime I try to print from a Microsoft Office program (Excel, Word, Powerpoint), the program crashes. I was previously using Office 2008, so I thought that might be the issue, but I installed Office 2011 and updated it so it is all good according to Microsoft AutoUpdate. I can open the print dialogue, but when I click "Print" I get the spinning rainbow of death and the program quits.

 

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010), OS X Mavericks (10.9)

    Same problem - MS Office 2011, Mid2011 iMac w/ ElCap 10.8.3 Three printers on the network, Samsung 191, HP P1102, Epson 2400. Office (I only use Word and Excel) crashes instantly with CommandP and File>Print. Doesn't get as far as the dialog box to select the printer. Both apps do print to the Default Printer (any of the three printers) as set in the Mac Prefs, but only one page at a time. All printers work on all other apps. I don't find a "PrintFab" anywhere, nor do I have any duplicate fonts, as far as I can tell. The error report doesn't include "Crashed Module Name" as some of the above error reports do. I haven't tried "resetting the printer system" yet, as they all work outside of Office.

     

    Thoughts and suggestions welcome.
