My printer is installed and connected to wifi and my computer is connected to the same wifi but it thinks the printer is offline.  When I run the Scan Doctor it says the printer is installed but it can't communicate with it.

Hi @ccww,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I understand that you are I’d like to help!

 

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

 

Make sure, your printer and your device are on the same network as 2.4GHZ only. 

 

Is it a private (Home network) or a public Wi-Fi connection? Wi-Fi direct? Or Hotspot?
What device are you using the printer with a Windows computer, Mac, Android, or iPhone?

 

Follow the steps from this document here and see how it goes.
