Ascertain that your printer is connected correctly as a
first step. Assuming your printer is wired, confirm that the USB or Ethernet
cable is securely inserted into both ends.Ensure
that the correct Wi-Fi network is connected to your printer.If
you have recently changed your network or password, this is extremely crucial.
2) Restart
your computer
Restarting
the computer and printer can sometimes resolve the "printer is
offline" issue. Unplug it from the power source and stop any running copy
jobs or other tasks. After a minute, wait, then plug it in and switch it on
again.
3)Check printer status
Look for error codes or blinking lights on the
printer, as these could indicate a problem. To find out what these indicators
signify, consult the printer's manual or the online help section.
4)Check printer settings
In the computer's settings, select 'Printers
& Scanners'. You can select "See what's printing" by
right-clicking on the printer name if it is the default printer and it is still
offline. Under the menu bar, select "Printer" and remove the
checkmark from "Use Printer Offline."
5)Check printer driver
The printer may stop functioning if the printer
driver is outdated or incompatible with the device. For the most recent driver
updates, visit the pages for HP, Lexmark, Canon, Brother, or Xerox. To download
and install them, adhere to the website's instructions.
6) Reinstall the printer
Uninstalling and reinstalling the printer could
be helpful if it's still showing as offline. Restart your computer, remove the
printer from "Printers and Scanners" in the computer's settings, and
then add the printer once more.
