Canon Mx300 Printer - Deletes Before Even Prints

I am having trouble printing to my canon mx300 printer. The document is sent to the printer and appears in the printer document log but only for a second. As quickly as it appears it says "Deleting" in the Status column and it never prints! Please help!
