OK.. you need to resume your print queue.  Until you do all the print 
queue will do will queue up jobs, but they will never print. Once the 
print queue is resumed anything that is in the queue will start to print.

I can't remember which desktop you are running, but on KDE you can 
pause/resume the queue by clicking on the list double bar or triangle on 
the right side of the name of the printer when you click the little 
printer icon in the system tray.   Wherever it is, it must be easily 
clickable, because you probably accidentally clicked it at some point.
