Because CUPS is saying queue is paused. The queue doesn't get paused
from printer errors, only from pausing it.
The other piece of evidence that the printer is fine is that he can't
print to it from another computer.

Why wouldn’t it be the printer. The queue paused because it detected a
problem on the printer hardware.

I'm sure it's not your printer. You print queue is paused, and it
needs to be resumed so that it will send print jobs to your printer

Once the print queue is resumed anything that is in the queue will
start to print.

be easily clickable, because you probably accidentally clicked it at
