HP Photosmart C3100 Not Working Properly

[Flying Toaster]

If I try to print anything nothing happens, even though there's a file is in the queue.

The top off the queue window has HP Photosmart C3100 series - Use Printer Offline. I tried doing something about that but my hardware knowledge is very limited.

A second problem is whenever I turn on the printer a test page is automatically printed. In the past I've just left it on to avoid this. Then it becomes a trade off of
saving ink at the cost of electricity and eventually it just gets turned off.

In the queue Window uncheck "Use printer offline" under the "Printer" menu.

From what I can find, the printer will print an alignment page when it detects the ink cartridges were changed. However, if that fails, it will try it again the next time it turns on. So it seems the alignment is failing.

Is that an easy fix or a hardware problem?
