Hello all, I'm about to renew my Instant Ink with HP following the free trial, but on checking a few things first in my dashboard, it says that it cannot connect to my printer and is offline.

I can print wirelessly ok and the printer says its online. So I'm just wondering how HP will ever know when to send me inks?

Many Thanks

Mark

Thank you for the help. It looks like it was a router issue and that needed a reboot. Appreciate the help
