The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

GDI is the Graphics Device Interface and handles *all* graphics within windows (except directx - but that's another story).

Anyhow, it's likely to be some kind of driver issue - I'd start with replacing the printer driver - but these kind of problems quickly become so labour intensive to debug, that it's faster to just reinstall windows... provided it was some variant of the dll hell. If not, and it really is a buggy driver, it of course will come back again.
