Sounds like the connection between the printer and the PC has been corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.

 

Download the latest software update for your OS and printer model from HPs support website.  Uninstall your current printer and reinstall with the latest software to refresh the connection.  Confirm any further problems or error messages from the installation wizard from there.
