My All-In-One HP 24 dd PC does not seem to be communicating anymore with my HP Envy 4520 printer

[Foxy87]

During printing the other day, the printer got this crazy name in the window and started blinking. So I turned it off and restarted it, but it will not print. When I send something, it just goes into obliviian. What can I do? I really need to print badly (bank statements, vendor statements, etc).
