Officejet 9010
Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

I have an Officejet 9010 printer.  I set it up with my home network as a wireless printer.  The printer goes offline after printing is done and the only way I can get it to go online again is by rebooting the computer and turning the printer off and on again.  This is a pain when I need to print something quickly.  I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the printer...still not staying online.

@Kate0927, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I understand the printer goes offline. Let us try these steps:

 

Restart the wireless router, the printer, and the PC

  • Make sure the printer and the PC are connected to the same wireless network.
  • Either a 2.4GHz network or a 5GHz network.
  • If you have a Dual-band router and both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks share the same name/SSID, the printer will not be able to connect to the network. In this case, contact your Internet service provider to assign different names to both the networks.

 

Assign a static IP address to the printer if the issue persists:

 

  • Obtain the IP address of the printer – You can touch the “wireless” icon on the printer control panel to obtain the IP address.
  • Type the IP address at the top of your web browser to obtain the printer EWS page on your computer.
  • If you get any security notification, click on show details/advanced and 'proceed to this website'.
  • Go to "Network" tab - General - Select "Network protocols" - Select "Enable IPv4 only" (or similar) - Apply the settings.
  • Go to the “Network” tab – Click on “Wireless (802.11) – Then click on “Network address (IPv4)
  • Click on the radio button which says “Manual IP” and then click “Suggest a manual IP address” to give a manual IP address to your printer.
  • Click on the radio button which says “Manual DNS Server” and under manual preferred type 8.8.8.8 and under manual alternate type 8.8.4.4 (This is Google DNS server address)

Note: You may watch this video for a better understanding.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
