Welcome to the HP Forums. I would be happy to help you with your HP OfficeJet 6600 Printer. I understand that you are getting printer offline issue and you have already done some preliminary troubleshooting. 

 

Don't worry though as I have a few steps to determine the issue and find a solution as well.

 

  • Use HP Print and Scan Doctor to check connectivity.
  • Set the default printer and unpause printing.
  • Reset the printer and check the connection status.
  • Make sure the correct port is selected.
  • Update the printer firmware.
  • Create a manual connection.
  • Add a second printer device to Windows.
  • Add the printer using HP Printer Assistant.

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers.
