Function address 0x00007FFA59144F99 caused a protection fault. (exception code 0x00000505)

The title says it all. The printer I'm using is experiencing this issue out of a sudden. From what I remember, I did NOTHING to the settings. When I was about to print some college documents in fast draft mode, that suddenly popped up. The reason why I choose to use fast draft is because there are a lot of college materials to print out, and I found that fast draft printing speeds up the process significantly, and consumes less ink. 

That being said, I've tirelessly tried every option there is.

• Restarting print spooler,
• renaming print subkey,
• disconnecting and reconnecting the printer to my pc (wired connection),
• restarting the printer,
• reinstalling the printer drivers,
• unchecking "let windows manage my default printer",
• cleaned corrupted files,
• ran a SFC/DISM scan,

and so on.

I hope someone here can understand my frustration and help me solve this infuriating issue once and for all.
