My computer is not seeing the printer as being on. I have the printer connected wirelessly but the computer is showing it as offline. When I run the troubleshooter, it tells me to turn the printer on (it is on). I can scan a document and it will send to the computer but I cannot print from the computer to the printer. I am thinking it may be a Windows 10 issue but I am not sure.
Any help would be appreciated.
I also ran a network test through the printer and everything passed. Not sure what to do from here.

So you're seeing a Printer Offline msg and you're on Win10? Microsoft released a patch, might be worth a try. Check out this link for details....
