If your HP printer is offline then you need to check whether the respective printer has been set as default or not. Before you start, ensure that you have downloaded and installed all the updates. You can set it as default for Windows 10 by referring to the steps mentioned below:
· Open ‘Devices’ and then click on ‘Printers and scanners’
· Make sure that the box next to ‘Let Windows manage my default printer’ has been unchecked. Unselect it if required
· Click on your printer from the list that you see
· If the printer has been listed a number of times then choose the one that shows idle or online status
·Choose ‘Manage’ and then select ‘Set as default’
