It looks like it believes the job complete.
When you print do you see a network connection between the server and
the printer device [netstat --tcp]? Does the printer have a
busy/status light? If so does it blink or flash [but print nothing]?
If it is a laser printer can you use the user panel to set it into
dump-mode and see if it prints something then?
