Sometimes my printer enters into a "Paused" state, and this is how I fix it:

In a browser window address bar: localhost:631
CUPs appears. Select "Administration" from the top menu bar
Click the button for "Manage Printers"
Select the affected printer
It should display the printer status, in my case: "Officejet (Paused,
Accepting Jobs, Not Shared)"
Select the "Maintenance" drop down and click "Resume Printer"
You may be asked to login with a user with sufficient privileges, yourself
or root.
if it's a good day, it should say "Printer OfficeJet has been resumed."
