I am trying to print a simple, B&W pdf document on my printer, but I only recieve an "Error Pinting on HP Deskjet 3700 series" message.  I am able to print a diagnostics page and an alignment page from the HP printer assistant program, but that doesn't let me print anything else.  If I attempt to print from HP smart or google chrome or microsoft word, or a test page from settings, I get the error message. 

 

I have tried restarting it multiple times.  I have removed it and its drivers from my computer and reinstalled them.  I have run the troubleshooter (which did nothing).  I have restarted my computer several times.  From everything I can tell, it is connected properly to my computer, it has full ink that I just replaced today, but it just will not print anything.  I can see it in settings and in control panel.  I can see it in the HP smart app, it even can detect when things are installed and ink levels.

 

I am simply confounded because I know it can print.  Just not what I want it to.  There's a missing connection somewhere it would seem and I don't know where it is.  I would appreciate any and all help.
