Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my printer showing offline?
A printer may appear offline due to a lost connection or paused print queue. Ensure it's powered on, connected to your Wi-Fi or USB, and the default printer is correctly set in your system settings.
How do I connect my printer to Wi-Fi?
Use the control panel on your printer to navigate to Network or Wireless Settings. Choose your Wi-Fi network, enter the password, and follow the on-screen instructions to complete setup.
My printer won’t connect to the computer. What should I do?
Check if the USB cable is securely connected or if both devices are on the same network (for Wi-Fi). Ensure the correct drivers are installed. Restart both printer and computer.
Can I use my printer wirelessly without a router?
Yes. Many printers support Wi-Fi Direct or hotspot mode. Enable Wi-Fi Direct from printer settings, then connect your computer or phone directly to the printer's temporary Wi-Fi signal.
Do I need to reinstall drivers if I change networks?
Usually not. But if the printer isn’t detected after switching networks, updating or reinstalling the drivers from your brand’s official website can help.
