My printer is offline - HP Deskjet 3050 All-in-One Printer series - J610

[JM923]

I have a Deskjet 3050A J611. I have been messing with this problem for DAYS. I have clicked everywhere. Installed and uninstalled the printer. It is supposed to be wireless. However, dug out my USB cable and plugged that in and then unplugged it.  Checked router. Turned it on and off. Reset it. Nothing has changed.  Sometimes the printer shows as idle. Test pages print okay.Turned the printer on & off. Unplugged it and then plugged it back in. Restarted computer numerous times. How do I fix this?
