- How to turn offline printer online in Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 10.
There are many reasons why a printer can go offline; they range from connectivity issues to a powered-down printer. Most of the time, you can bring the printer back online with a few clicks in Windows, but if not, there are additional troubleshooting steps you can take.
1. Reboot your printer by shutting it off and turning it back on again. Give the unit a minute or two to finish booting.
2. Verify that the printer is plugged in to your computer (for local printers) or that it has network connectivity. If the printer is a networked unit, double-check the link light on the back of the printer to make sure it’s flashing green.
3. Log on to your computer using an account that has “Manage Printers” rights to the printer. In most cases, a local administrator account is sufficient.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops,and tablets running the Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7 operating systems.Works for all major computer manufactures (Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Samsung). - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

NO it only made it more confusing
unfortunately my computer keeps saying that configuration is not supported smh
No, you did not. Now my laptop is saying "An error occured during port configuration.
The requested resource is in use." What do I do now?
👌🏽
no, i have nothing checked and none of the ports work
You have know idea how long I have been trying to resolve this problem. A simple reset and done! Thankyou!
I did exactly what you said in the video and it worked. Thank you so much. This printerproblem almost drove me crazy. Yes, you're a true lifesaver.
Lifesaving video! I have a Brother wireless that while getting a bit older, still works well, except for all the times it is "offline." I've tried various fixes, reinstalled drivers, etc. IF these fixes work they are always temporary. This fixed my issue immediately. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
I have been having this problem for over a year! It took hours to print anything. This works! I love you! THANK YOU!!!!!!!
You're welcome!
What would we do without you. So simple and well explained. Thanks so much.
You are so welcome!
After 6 years still helping thank you 😄
Glad I could help
I just viewed the tutorial. I used it, step by step, to get my printer back on line. IT WORKED! I am the techno idiot so thank you so much.
Perfectly clear and super helpful instructions!!!! Thank you!!!! I applied at work.
This tip solved my problem immediately without even a restart of the printer or laptop. Thank you.
You're welcome!
It worked automatically. At first i was getting the same message that everyone else is posting about "not being supported" But after I created a new port and added the IP it worked great! THANK YOU!
Glad I could help
So how did you find the IP address ?
thanks man, way more helpful than the chat bot from the official manufacturer 😁
I tried, and it worked. That exactly what I was looking for. You are the best.
Glad I could help
Thank you so much! I've been looking for tutorial like this to help me fix my printer.. so far this is the one helped me.. huhu
Man that worked right away, very easy to understand video. Outstanding.
Glad it helped
What a most helpful video! It instantly fixed an annoying, on-going problem I've been having with a new Lexmark multi-function printer I'd bought recently. Thank you.
Glad it helped!
@@MDTechVideos When i click on configure port it says operation is not supported
Great job sir, I got my printer back online and working. Thanks a million.
Glad it helped
when i clicked on configure port... a window popped up saying This operation is not supported. Any ideas? Thanks
You have to create a new port that says "Standard TCP/IP Port" and follow the instructions from there. After that, you can do what he did in the video. Hope that helps!
Did that and it still says offline.

I had the same problem and finally just unplugged the USB cable and plugged it back in and the printer worked straight away. Technology!!?
YOu might have clicked when WDS port was selected
Thanks for helping.
What's wrong or why when I click on CONFIGURE PORT it show me warning THIS OPERATION IS NOT SUPPORTED?
Worked like a charm, thanks for the vid!
You're welcome!
Just leaving a comment here to say this worked. My printer is a HP Color Laserjet CP2025dn, and I'm running Windows 10 64bit. I couldn't even get a test page printed before this. Thanks again for posting this! It's still helping people in the year 2020.
Great to hear.
Thank you so much for the video. As many have stated, when I clicked "Configure Port," I got the pop-up window that stated "This operation is not supported." I then clicked the "Standard TCP/IP Port" and followed the rest of your tutorial. Afterward, I clicked "Run the troubleshooter," and it didn't recognize the new port. So I clicked back on the original port (WSD Port). Now everything works perfectly. It cleared the "Offline" error. Thanks again.
Glad to help...and glad to hear some viewers can figure things out using the framework of my tutorial, even if everything does not match 100% the video.

You're welcome!
What I did for my Konica Minolta C353 to Connect again:
I did what you described in your video.
But the problem was that the "Wire" connecting the Printing machine and the Router wasn't creating a connection.
So, 1st) I unplugged the wire and Plug it back again in the router.
and 2nd) I tick the checkbox ✅ [SNMP Status Enabled] again. and everything was fixed.
Thank you! that's a very helpful tuto
Glad it was helpful!

I followed steps, but didn’t restart the printer as status went back online, HOWEVER my application could not find any printers at all. Then I changed settings back and printer appeared offline again. So I did all steps to include restarting the printer, and now everything works properly.❤

I can follow steps to 'Configure Ports' but when I left click the message says 'Operation not supported' .. 'An error occured during port configuration' ??
Thanks..I will give it a try.
Really helpful video. Question. How can a software product make such a simple matter so complicated? Surely there could have been a button saying "Put printer online"
Seriously!!!! Why do they do this to us!
Thankew so much bro.. it worked ❤️❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻
Glad I could help!
Finally I got my HP printer off Offline easily. Thanks a ton
