I had the same problem after a Windows 10 Update and an update of HP Printer software (not sure which was the culprit).  I used the HP repair tool.  It allowed a local print, but not a regular print, so it said to reinstall software.  I did that three times.  I tried booting into safe mode, adding another user, disabling firewall, deleting spooler files,... .  It all led to an apparent good print, but nothing happening to the printer.  It printed fine from another printer.  After about 4 hours of this I read this post.  Changed to the Officjet Pro 8600 Class driver and it worked right away.  All of my features seem to be fine at first glance (two-sided pring, color options, ...).  Thanks for the great advice!
