How to keep Windows 10 from Installing printer driver Microsoft XPS Document Writer

I keep getting an error:

Installing printer driver Microsoft XPS Document Writer failed, error code 0x0, HRESULT 0x80070705.

This keeps crashing Windows 10. I have tried many things and wasted a lot of time trying to FIX it, now I just want it to go away/not attempt it. This was either an upgrade machine from Win 7 or Win 8 (not sure, I inherited the machine from another employee)

I have tried to uninstall/install the printer using the commonly quoted uninstall and reboot then reinstall it cycle to fix the issue (but it does not of course). SO I don't need/use it thus I simply un-installed the printer by that name. Now, daily it logs the error above just as it did before the un-install, then by coincidence, I get a "CRITICAL_TASK_FAILED" Blue screen of death.

There are tons of tasks in task manager, but none seem related to this (at least by obvious association)

How do I even prevent the ATTEMPT to install this driver/action?
