I can't print from powerpoint, excel, adobe reader software. Selection of the default printer does not stick

Lenovo thinkpad T410s, stock, windows 7 64, ms office 2007, adobe reader, all day

Cannot print to a PictBridge compatible printer (including print them as pdf, xps, etc.) of powerpoint, excel and adobe (at least). This is what happens when I try to print:
-excel, I get the error "current printer is unavailable". When I say ok, it appears a box displays the available printers (updated from the printer list and shows new printers if I install, removes those I removed/uninstalled), but I chose one, say ok and it just goes back to the same error
-powerpoint: I get the error "no printer is installed.
-Word: printing, but it does not show a default printer (drop initially empty). the list of printers (once that you pull-down) remains up-to-date
-adobe reader software: poster old printer printer list and the default is not updated. When I select and press on print, it gives error ('no page selected')

I have read that sometimes happens when there is no default printer selected. It's true. I select a default printer, but it doesn't seem to stick. When I run the troubleshooter to fix - it, he confirmed that he could not set default printer (and then gave me some unnecessary insulting suggestions, like going to the site of the printer manufacturer, or fix - it)

I uninstalled reinstalled all printer drivers except the default virtual printers (printing of the document, ms fax, pdf etc.). I checked that the spooler is running (in services)

What can I do to recover the printing feature?

It seems as if it was a corrupt user profile. In the new user profile things seem to work. Thank you. Still a lot of work just to work in the new profile, but not quite as bad as from scratch
