MS Office 2010 Pro and my printer does not work,

I just installed MS Office 2010 Pro and my printer does not work, I tried to print a test page for the printer, but that prints either, ask if I want to troubleshoot the printer and when I click on Yes, I get a message that there is a problem of ActiveX.  The printer will not print not any application, but it worked before installing office.
All the apps work except in order to print it.
I am running WinXPPro w/sp3.
