I recently got my Wi-Fi changed to spectrum and I didn't know I had to remove my printer from that Wi-Fi before getting rid of it. I also made the dumb decision to remove my printer from my HP smart account, so now every time I try to add the printer it says it's offline... I have no clue what I'm doing and every time I try to fix it, I wonder if it would be easier to buy a new printer since literally no article helps. Then again, my pockets probably wouldn't like that idea very much lolll
