My daughter somehow paused the printer on her computer and i can not figure out how to un-pause it. Can someone give me some information on how to do this? I have tried everything. Thank you!!

Hi @Ally03

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I understand the printer is paused. I'd be happy to assist you. Let us try these steps to resolve this issue:

• Open the control panel and select Devices and Printers.
• Right-click the printer and select 'See what's printing'.
• Click the top Printer menu and click Pause Printing to remove the checkmark and resume printing.

If the issue persists, run HP Print and Scan Doctor to diagnose and fix any driver issue

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
