Environment:

.NET Framework 3.0 and higher (shipped with Windows Vista, separate download with Windows XP)

Cause

Narrowed down to be the Microsoft XPS Writer printer object set as the default printer when PowerPoint is launched.

WORKAROUND - Make sure PowerPoint is closed and change the default printer to something else. For example, if you have OneNote installed you can change to the Send To OneNote printer.
