    Wireless printers are both on but they show as offline

    Hello Maria,

    I appreciate for trying the troubleshooting steps for resolving the issue, as a next step I would suggest you to follow the below method and check if it helps.

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to run printer diagnostic tool utility which automatically fix printing issues like printer does not work, unable to install printer, cannot connect to a network printer and other printing errors. You may refer to
    the below link for more information.

    Official HP Print and Scan Doctor for Windows | Free Download hppsdr.exe

    Method 2:

    If issue still persists, I suggest you to install the printer drivers in compatibility mode to make sure that the drivers are installed properly.

    Please follow the steps below for more information:

    • Right click on the setup file of the driver and select
      Properties
    • Select Compatibility Tab
    • Place a check mark next to Run this program in Compatibility mode and select the operating system accordingly from the drop down list
    • Click OK and run the setup.


    Hope this information helps, get back to us if you need further assistance with Windows.
