    Problem with the cable, the printer, maybe a document stuck in the queue. Could be lots of things.

    Printer
    Hi,
    Unfortunately, there is not a quick answer to this one.
    Best bet to get it to work correctly is to uninstall the printer, then re-install it.
    Go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, and uninstall all the stuff related to the HP printer, etc.

    Then, re-boot.
    Then, use your HP install CD, and install it again.
    This will save you a lot of time, trying to troubleshoot why it's not working properly.
    Best of luck,
    fredg

    I would stick with what's in its queue first... because this may happen if the cable happened to fall off or loosened, or the printer was not on when you went to print before...
