my printer of line,

how , I want turn on ?

HP Recommended

printer is offline-how do i get it back online?

HP Recommended

1--turn the priteroff

2--glare at it

3--turn it back on, and let it whiz and whir, and hopefully print a test page

 

                                                              *reboot*

 

4--reboot your whole system.  Disconnect all power supplies, glare at them, turn everything back on.

      Lots of people NEVER turn anything off, 24/7, which is a bad idea.  Rebooting is like takig a shower

     after playing a 2-hour gig in a hundred-degree bar.

 

                                                                "8efreshing *

 

5--If necessary (hopefully not), uninstall and reinstall the printer software  

 

 

Mac and wireless peripherals: sorry, but I can't offer any advice.   Macs cost too much and have tiny (laptops) screens, and I always find I have more problems with wireless devices so except for my wi-fi...

Thank you. All off, back on, uninstall, install and nothing. I check the network and I can't find the print, all other devises are on the network even the cellphone is on the network but the darn printer. 😞 😞 😞 😞

BUT - do you leave printer ON when you reboot or shut it down, reboot then turn on computer?
