I've been continually having issues when trying to print to my HP Officejet Pro 8600.  For example, when I'm trying to print a word document, it says the printer is off line.  I've checked the printer by clicking on the "See what's Printing section and then selecting Printer.  When I view that screen, the printer off line is unchecked.  Also, the printer screen is showing that the printer is on line as well.  I have a wireless connection and I'm running Windows 8.1.  Thanks in advance for your assistance.
