Your printer might be saying it's ready, but there's something blocking the output. First, make sure you actually selected the appropriate printer and that your document is correctly formatted. Then, take a look your paper tray: is it filled correctly? Is there any stuck paper? Sometimes a simple fix can solve the issue. If not, maybe it's time to inspect your printer's settings or even refresh both your computer and printer.
