Word 2013 new files print blank pages

I have just installed Office 2013 on my windows 8 Toshiba laptop with AMD chip. When opening old files and printing, everything prints normally. However, when creating new flies from "Blank" template, and selecting print, the page comes out completely blank. I have tried different templates always with the same result. Printer responds, page is produced; only nothing is ever printed on the page. It's always just a blank sheet of paper. Weird and a real pain.

I assume you have actually added content to the new Blank Document before trying to print? Is it possible that the text is formatted as Hidden?

The usual suggestion is to test printing to the XPS printer or saving as PDF to see what result you get. Also, what do you see in Print Preview?
