I've had problems with some printer drivers that corrupt workstations far more
often than other printers (or versions of that print driver). I've had this
problem most of all with HP UPD and I've had the best luck with HP UPD 5.5, so
much so that it's my way to the driver when it's available for a printer (have
a look at https://printerhow.com for more details). If the print driver is the
case, look at a different version on your print server once you narrow it down
to which print driver is corrupted.

Do you have the same symptoms with another user? How about a local non-domain
admin? Is that Windows 7,8,10? Try to remove the network printers from the
registry? Stop printing the spooler and open the D&P, then start the spooler?

It could be a crazy corrupt print driver if you can open D&P with another user
by uninstalling all printers, deleting all print drivers, rebooting and logging
in with a domain user who could not open it before.
