When I open MS 3.6 and simply try and print the default 'untitled' page, there is an error of some kind. The treble clef is clearly displayed on the screen, but it is garbled and cut off when printing.

Attached is the printing error.

This error occurs with the Treble clef in every score I try and create.

Please help quickly because my work is crippled until it is fixed

I wonder how that pdf was created. The best results are usually obtained using [File]>[Export] and selecting "Export to pdf" in the dropdown. Creating a pdf via the MuseScore print dialogue and using a third party pdf creator is very much a second-best option.

Definitely a duplicate, even if it turns out to be a different printer driver that has the same bug. But so far, all such reports have involve the AirPrint driver for HP LasrJet Pro on macOS only. So, solution is simply to not use AirPrint if using that printer. A workaround also is to switch to a different music font in MuseScore, via Format / Style / Score.
