Hi,
Just go to printers and faxes and right click on the printer's icon,then select resume/start.
If that doesn't solve it,turn your printer off and disconnect from the PC.
Restart the PC too,and then connect the printer again.
Now check the status of the printer.

Hope this helps.Thanks!

If the printer icon is displaying in the top right (on the panel) you can right-click to get pause/resume options. Or you could try System > Admin > Printers
