HP printer stopped working

Hello,

I just recently installed fedora on my win xp machine as a dual boot. I was quite pleased that the install went ok and everything seemed to work. I am completely new to Linux, but am interested by what I see.

Here's my question. I just ran apt-up2date and quite a few updates downloaded. After it was done I notice that my HP usb deskjet printer no longer prints. If I try to print from a file it looks like it queues and then nothing happens. Before the updates it would print fine. I looked in control manager and under printer I see that it is idle and rejecting jobs. Then after a while it will become active, but when I try to print again I get the same result. Under the generic driver option I can not see any of the jobs in queue, but under cups I have a list of jobs waiting to print but there is a small red x on the printer icon so I'm not sure what that means. I did try all the options though. I'm pretty sure the updates I downloaded had something to do with it but being new to Linux I am not quite sure where to start looking. Perhaps someone could steer me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Mark
