Windows 10: printer pause

my printer seems to be on pause always when I try to print on Windows 10

:)

 

Upgraded to W10 and printer keeps pausing

After the Windows 10 upgrade my printer won't accept Ready status, but defaults to Pause. It's an older printer but the manufacturer site lists updated drivers built in to W10. Is this a conflict somewhere in the device settings?
