Let's try disabling the UAC(User Account Control) settings.
- Press the Windows button and search for "Change User Account Control Settings"
- Try disabling it.
- Try to print again
- Also, try disabling any antivirus software/firewall temporarily before you print.
- If you still face the same issue, proceed to the next step.

Try creating another Local User Account on your PC and then try to print.
Refer to this KB article from Microsoft and create a Local account on your Windows.
Try to print again from the Office XP and Photoshop applications.
Let me know what happens.
