kmleehan (by victrynvengnce), SWAG, maybe your machine doesn't realize it is there. Reinstall as though it was a new one and when you come to the spot in the Installation Wizard, simply tell it you have allready hooked it up. So long as have the printer installation files, it will locate what it needs and reinstall. Mine had the wrong drivers and reinstalling sorted it out.
HTH.

kmleehan: check to see if the printer is paused. click Start, Control Panel, and then double-click Printers & Faxes.
right-click your printer and see if Pause Printing is selected.
if it is, click Pause Printing again to resume printing.

if not paused, right-click your printer icon and select "Open" to show the printer queue,
highlight the next job, click Document, Restart.
