Is it plugged in? You got paper in the tray? Is the printer mapped to the computer? Can you print a test page?

I can print a test page at the printer but not from computer to printer. I can see the documents in queue change from 0 to 1 and back 0 but no print.

Might check with your printer mfgr. We have a Canon laser all in one, prints fine but won't scan. Looked all over but there is no working driver for this printer to run on a W10 computer.

Go to add devices and printers. Add your printer.You can also reload YOUR printer driver. Do you have any small children that can help you?

Double check you have the proper printer driver.
Open printer properties and find print a test page. Does it print a test page?
Open notepad and type some text save and send to printer. Does it print?
What program are you using to print the PDF from?

You can try flushing the print spooler.
Go to computer services. Find print spooler and disable it then enable it and restart computer.

You can try removing the printer and then adding it.
