HP OfficeJet 4650 All-in-One Printer
macOS 11.0 Big Sur

My printer was working fine until today. It suddenly went to offline. From the printer's panel, it was connected to my wifi.

Power-cycling the printer didn't fix it.

I removed all printers and scanners from the Printer panel on my Mac.

When I click on the plus button to add printers and scanners, my HP OfficeJet 4650 appears just as a scanner. After adding it, the printer panel says there is no printer.

Clicking on the plus button again still only shows it as a scanner.

How can I fix this situation?

Please disregard this one. (I wanted to remove my post but couldn't find a way to do that.)

I was connected to a wrong wifi network, a different one that my printer was connected.
