I've checked my Belarc Advisor profile and it is/was 1909. I imagine the build update must have been 2004.
Apparently the print spooler problem introduced by KB4560960 has been rectified by KB4567512:

From Microsoft:
Print spooler might error or close unexpectedly when attempting to print
After installing KB4560960, certain printers may be unable to print. Print spooler may error or close unexpectedly when attempting to print and no output will come from affected printer. You might also encounter issues with the apps you are attempting to print from. You might receive an error from the app or the app may close unexpectedly. Note This issue might also affect software-based printers, for example printing to PDF.

Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 10, version 2004; Windows 10, version 1909; Windows 10, version 1903; Windows 10, version 1809; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10, version 1803; Windows 10, version 1709; Windows 10, version 1607; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2015; Windows 8.1

Resolution: This issue was resolved in the out-of-band update KB4567512. It is a cumulative update, so you do not need to apply any previous update before installing it. To get the standalone package for KB4567512, search for it in the Microsoft Update Catalog. You can import this update into Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) manually. See the Microsoft Update Catalog for instructions. Note KB4567512 is not available from Windows Update and will not install automatically.

I'll make another restore point and install it.
