Your printer might be saying it's ready, but there's something hampering the output. First, make sure you actually selected the appropriate printer and that your document is properly organized. Then, examine your paper tray: is it filled correctly? Is there any paper obstruction? Sometimes a simple tweak can resolve the issue. If not, maybe it's time to inspect your printer's settings or even reboot both your computer and printer.
