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.

@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.

  1. On the PC, go to Control panel > Devices and printers > Remove the existing printer entry > click on Add a printer(at the top) 
  2. Under 'Choose a device or printer', click on 'The printer I want isn't listed'.
  3. Select 'Add a printer using a TCP/IP address'
  4. Find the IP address of the printer by tapping on the wireless/ethernet icon on the printer screen
  5. Type in the 'IP address in Hostname or IP address' box, click next
  6. Proceed to the next steps by following the on-screen instructions.
  7. Try printing. Open the File > print

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
