Ways to start
A few requests this Agent can handle.
My Brother HL-L2350DW says “Printer is offline” on my Windows 11 laptop over Wi-Fi. Restarting the printer did not help. What should I check first?
Make an ordered checklist for my HP LaserJet Pro connected by USB to a MacBook Air. The print queue is paused, and I have already restarted both devices.
My Epson EcoTank appeared offline after I changed routers. My Windows desktop can see the new Wi-Fi network, but the printer cannot print. What should I inspect?
