the print queue but nothing comes out of the printer, it says its
offline when the printer is online and I can print from my mac, and I
cant get it to print from pc, does anyone have any advice or tips on
how-to solve this problem

Hmmm, have you tried removing all traces of the printer and reinstalling it?

Otherwise I'd suggest looking on the HP forums, they're usually pretty good (as you say this is a Linux group, although I use and support Windows XP and Windows 7 I don't know that HP printer).
