Printer from computer says OFFLINE. But I can print from another computer, and out cell phones. It is my laptop that does not work. I log into HP and it has my account, says it syncs for my account, says I am connected to WIFI. I don't know how to fix the offline.
Solved! Go to Solution.

@Stipe, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.
I understand you are not able to print from the HP Smart app as it says the printer is offline.
Install the printer using the TCP/IP port to resolve this issue:
Check for any pending Windows updates first.
- On the PC, go to Control panel > Devices and printers > Remove the existing printer entry > click on Add a printer(at the top)
- Under 'Choose a device or printer', click on 'The printer I want isn't listed'.
- Select 'Add a printer using a TCP/IP address'
- Find the IP address of the printer by tapping on the wireless/ethernet icon on the printer screen
- Type in the 'IP address in Hostname or IP address' box, click next
- Proceed to the next steps by following the on-screen instructions.
- Try printing. Open the File > print
Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
