The printer works, the computer works, but I cannot print from the computer. I've tried to fix it by removing the printer through the control panel and then adding the printer, but no luck. The message “Active Directory Domain Services is not currently available” appears.

I lost the ability to print to my HP 1210 printer from windows 8. This is what some frustrated users say about it: This problem has been present with Windows 7 users, so it is not a novelty and it has not appeared only with the launch of Windows 10.

The problem does not seem to appear to certain type of printers, since HP, Canon, Brother, Lexmark and other users have reported it. Fix "One or more network protocols are missing on this computer".Run the built-in printer troubleshooter.
