Been printing via wifi successfully for 2 yrs. A week ago, tried to print a blog recipe and goes fine through all the print process until it get to print preview. Hangs up on Preparing Preview and will not print. Have tried: unplug printer, reboot phone, printer has paper, uninstalled HP apps and Cloud Print, and wifi addresses are the same on phone and printer.
