I try printing from the firefox web browser or a pdf document and the files will not print and get deleted from the queue after about 30 seconds. I tried the google chrome browser and they print fine from there. This problem just started today.

Make sure you don't have Print to file selected and the correct printer is selected. You can see those settings in the 'native print dialog' window when you do { Ctrl + P }.
