Outlook crash when printing

Whenever I try to print something from Outlook, it either hangs or crashes. I can print just fine from other applications, I updated the printer driver and when trying to print to another printer I get the same results.
How can I get printing to work again?

Outlook keeps its printing style settings in a file called OutlPrnt. You can run into several issues like these hangs and crashes when the file gets corrupted. On multiple occasions I’ve also seen messages been printed in right-to-left format instead of left-to-right due to OutlPrnt corruptions.

You can recover from this by renaming the OutlPrnt file to .old when Outlook is closed. You can find the file here;

Windows Vista and Windows 7
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook\

Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\

Note: To find out more about where Outlook keeps its files and settings, see this guide.
