HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M182nw

I moved my office around, unplugging my printer while I did so. When I plugged it back in turned it on, it started printing something weird over and over again. When I check jobs it says there's no jobs. When I click cancel on the printer...it just says "canceling" forever. I need to print stuff for work but I cant. It was literally working fine right before I unplugged it. Below is a pic example of what's coming out.
