Why will my hp printer print test pages but not print from my computer

[heyloucee]

Hello,
My HP 6500 all in one will print test pages but will not print from my computer. It worked fine up until a week ago?

 

[mcnumpty23]

is it set as default printer?

look under devices and printers

i have been running into this alot lately with hp's on my network.
i found that updating the firmware on the printer is a quick fix.
down load the latest firmware from hp
