Why is my printer offline after setup?

A printer appearing offline after setup can be frustrating. This issue may occur due to connectivity problems, outdated drivers, or incorrect printer settings. Ensure your printer is powered on, connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your device, and has sufficient ink or paper. Restarting the printer and your computer can also resolve temporary glitches. Verify the printer is set as the default device in your system settings. For HP printers, visit 123 hp com setup to download the latest drivers and ensure proper setup.
