I have to print a self test for history class, but when I plug in the printer it won't come online. I don't know why it's doing this, I've never had a problem before. What do I do?
Change a printer's status to "online" Your printer will display as "offline" if it can't communicate with your PC. Check to make sure the printer is turned on and connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your PC. ... Select Start > Settings > Devices > Printers and scanners, then select the printer and select Remove Device.
all printers are different. maybe your power outlet is dead. maybe your printer is dead. maybe your printers power source is dead. maybe there is faulty wiring. maybe...what? it won't come "online"!??
