I have had this wireless printer for a few months hooked up to my router and it's worked perfectly printing from 2 ipads, my laptop and my wife's laptop.

Now it will not print from my laptop. The other three devices are all working just fine but my laptop give an error when I try to print.

It says:

"The printer is offline.
Check that the printer cable is connected and the printer power is on."

I know that my laptop is connected to the router because I'm typing on this website. I know my printer is connected because it's printing from other devices.

I tried several different changes including removing the printer and re-installing the drivers/software from the website and also the original disk. When doing that I was getting an error saying that I need to logon as administrator to install software...I am logged in as admin so I don't know what's wrong.

I did a restore last night because I had changed so may things and nothing worked.

Any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to Seven Forums,

You may some basic tasks to do by restarting the printer and also restart the problem printer and then try to print again.

Post an update if it works or not.
