My printer is on but it says on my computer it is offline.

[Spiticia]

Printer not responding on my computer, it is turned on but my computer says it's offline.

Been struggling with this for hours.

Any quick fix or something? It is connected by usb because the wireless connection also doesn't work.

Plus it prints blank papers.

It is a trash at the momment. 

I use a Envy 5642.

Please help!
