It sounds like you have a print job stuck in the print que. When this happens the print jobs after the stuck one will not print either. You will need to clear the print que and reprint the jobs. Here is a link to an article showing how to purge the print que and get your printer back printing again.

It could be a print job that has stalled.
Open the print queue (on the taskbar by the system clock)
and cancel all the documents that are there ,then reprint and see what happens.
Also make sure the printer is plugged in and online.

What you can do here right now is to clear any print queue , to do that follow this procedure.
Click Start then go to programs then accessories then go to system tools and then look for Command prompt , then right click Command prompt and click RUN As Admin then once the black window is open type there NET STOP SPOOLER and hit enter and once the process is done type this next command NET START SPOOLER and hit enter that should clear any print queue and now try to print.

Good Day Nanawhit!
That happens all the times when first print job encounter a problem and stops printing and it was followed by series of print jobs. Some reasons for stop printing could be a printer out of paper and printer not set as default printer.
The best way to fix it is to cancel all pending jobs. When print jobs window is cleared off pending print jobs, restart your PC and your printer. Then go to your printer and make sure it is the default printer.
After that try printing a test page. Once a test page is successful, you can now print as many as you want.
1. Browse to Start -> Run... and type in NET STOP SPOOLER (this will stop the
print spooler service)
2. Browse to your windows\system32\spool\PRINTERS\
folder. You should see files there ending in .SPL and .SHD created around the
time you tried to print - delete these files.
3. Browse to Start -> Run... and type in NET START SPOOLER (this will restart the
print spooler service)
Try to print a document again to verify that the problem is fixed.
In the Print Queue toolbar you have these buttons:
From the Dock menu you can see your printer's status, toggle Pause
and Resume Printer, Auto Quit (once print job completes) on / off, and
from the Options sub-menu you can toggle Keep in Dock on / off.
