Product: HP OfficeJet 6950
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hope someone can help me with this, because it drives me crazy.

 

At first time everyting went okay with my OfficeJet 6950, i could print from my PC and from my iPhone, however now the printer keeps the status offline.

 

When i take a look at wireless settings in the control panel of the printer my wifi network shows op and connection is wonderful. I tried many solutions like this one but it didn't do the job. My OS is Windows 10 64 bit, all updates installed including for the 6950. The printer can print manually testpages a.s.o.

 

I need the printer working to do my job for our company and this is so frustrating!

 

Please help me with this.

 

Thanx in advance

Problem finally solved. If anyother has te same problems try this:

 

Windows logo + R (Runbox), then type ncpa.cpl

(First see if you have the right wifi selected)

 

Rightclick on Wireless/Wifi network adapter and click on Properties

Click on the Configure button and select Power Management and if enabled, turn off "Allow the computer to turn off the device to save power

 

This worked for me
