How to act if your printer is offline

If your printer is displayed as offline, although it is connected and switched on, various causes come into consideration. Above all, the type of integration of the printer by cable or WLAN should be considered.

If you have connected the printer by cable, you should first check whether the printer cable is firmly seated in the socket on the printer. You can also try a different USB port on the computer. Switch the printer off and on again, so that it has the opportunity to reload.

Other possible solutions if the printer is offline

Also directly on the PC, you have some options to fix the problem that your switched on printer is displayed as offline:
  1. Manually via download from the manufacturer or via the Device Manager, you can reinstall the printer drivers.
  2. Enter "Control Panel" in the Windows search. There, open "Devices and Printers", right-click your device and run a troubleshooter.
  3. If your device is not listed, click "Add Printer" at the top and follow the instructions.
  4. Right-click on the printer should be the last option to uninstall it and set up again.

WLAN-Drucker offline

Haben Sie Ihren Drucker per WLAN-Verbindung installiert und in Betrieb genommen, kann das Netzwerk das Problem sein.
  1. In den Einstellungen des Druckers können Sie die aktiven WLAN-Verbindungen einsehen. Stellen Sie sicher, dass der Drucker im selben Netzwerk wie Ihr Rechner ist.
  2. Eventuell ist der Rechner zu weit weg vom Drucker und die Verbindung zwischen den Geräten zu schwach, um den Drucker nutzen zu können.
  3. Weiterhin können Sie den Drucker aus dem Netzwerk entfernen und die Verbindung per Eingabe der IP-Adresse und des Passworts des WLANs erneut herstellen.
