Is the printer turned on and plugged in?
Is the printer off-line? Try checking any lids or other "openable"
parts.
Is the printer cable properly seated on each end? How about the
power cable to the printer?

restarting cups and restarting the computer but the jobs stay in the queue. Ran through and canceled all the jobs and restarted cups and then tried to print but no glory. Meanwhile the other Computer A seems to work fine and I can't figure out what happened to Computer B

If you have any ideas I'd appreciate them. If you have any information on how to trouble shoot a problem like this I'd appreciate that also. I'm sure this will not be last time I'll be confronted with this problem.

Craig's suggestion on checking error logs is a good idea. You might
also try asking CUPS to provide more output.

Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf then do try restarting CUPS and see what you
get.
