WIFI Printer Offline or in Error

If your WIFI Printer was configured and working, and now shows offline when you want to print try these steps:

  • Power off the printer.
  • Reboot your computer.
  • Power on the printer.

To Reboot your computer (Windows 11)

  • Left click on the Start Menu Icon on Task Bar.
  • Left click on the Power Icon on the bottom right of the Start Menu Window.
  • Left click on Restart.
  • Log back in once Windows comes back up and attempt to print.

Tip: On a Windows Computer make sure your WiFi network is marked Private not Public. This sometimes helps fix this issue too.

Open Settings, Select Network & internet– if Properties doesn’t show Private network click on it and change the setting

If the Printer Shows in Error

You may have a print job that is in error. Check your Print Queue for your printer, and cancel the print job that is in error or not printing.
