DNS server address that cannot be accessed

[42Princess]

The message I receive from my printer is:

This printer is currently configured with a Domain Name System (DNS) server address that cannot be accessed.  On most networks, not having an accessible DNS server address can prevent the printer from accessing Web pages over the internet.

In checking, everything is connected.  I have internet service but have a problem printing.
