My MacBook will not communicate with 8719 over the wireless network or neither will it airprint. I also have a Dell laptop that is working ok with the printer. I have tried all the trouble shooting tips.

Hi,

Try removing the printer and then re-adding it by opening the preferences tab and then selecting "printers & scanners".

From there, click the minus sign under the printer icon to remove the printer and then re-add it using the plus sign.

This often helps if you are experienceing printer offline issues regularly.


If you still can't find the printer, I would try the steps with the usb connected and if a wireless connection is established, then remove it.



If the issue persists, restart your mac and try again and if this doesn't help, then restart your router also.
