Word/ XPS prevents use of printer.

I just installed Word and something called XPS is preventing me from selecting my printer.

When I go File/Print...the only option I have to print is Microsoft XPS. The choice to use my printer is no longer there.

How do I get the choice back?

Thanks

Edit...nevermind, had to reinstall the printer driver.

Did you look in the Printers and Faxes area and see if your printer is still listed? And is it marked as the default printer? If not, right click on the printer icon and select "make this my default printer' (or something close to that)
