Hey everyone! I'm having quite the headache with my HP Color Laser MFP 179fnw printer. It suddenly stopped receiving print jobs, and I've checked a bunch of things. It's definitely not out of ink, my internet connection is solid, and both my computer and the printer are on the same network. I've been using the same device for printing and have restarted everything multiple times. No luck finding a solution online or on YouTube, but the printer keeps showing as offline. If anyone has tips or advice, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Sometimes, the only fix is to remove the printer from your devices and add it back again. It can seem pointless, but it works more often than you'd think.
I had a similar issue where my printer refused to come online. The trick that worked for me was pulling out the power plug and letting it sit for a minute before plugging it back in. Give that a shot!
I actually tried that already, but no luck yet! Just doesn't want to cooperate.
I’ve done that a few times already, though. It's frustrating!
