Hi @Kenneth72,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
If your HP OfficeJet Pro 8139e All-in-One Printer and laptop both show as online but you're unable to print, try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue.
Restart Devices:
- Power cycle both the printer and the laptop.
- Turn off the printer, unplug it for a few seconds, then plug it back in.
- Restart your laptop.
Check Printer Queue:
- Open the printer queue on your laptop to check if there are any stuck print jobs.
- On Windows: Go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers, right-click the printer, and select See what's printing.
- Clear any stuck print jobs.
Reinstall Printer Drivers:
- Uninstall the printer drivers from your laptop, and then reinstall them by downloading the latest version from HP's website.
- Make sure the correct printer is set as the default printer.
Check Printer's Network Connection:
- Ensure that the printer is still connected to the correct Wi-Fi network. You can print a network configuration page from the printer's control panel to verify the connection.
Run Printer Troubleshooter:
- On Windows: Go to Settings > Devices > Printers & Scanners, select the HP printer, and click Manage. Then click on Run the troubleshooter.
Check for Software Conflicts:
- Disable any firewall or security software temporarily to see if it’s blocking the connection between your printer and laptop.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
