Check the status of the printer at Control Panel. Set it to online if it's shown as offline. If this doesn't fix the problem, check whether installing the vista driver available at your printer manufacturer's website helps.

Step 1:
a. Click Start, go to Control Panel and select Hardware and Sound.
b. Click Printer.
c. If the Printer is offline, it shows "Offline" status. If the Printer is online it shows "Ready".
d. If the Printer is offline, set it to online.
e. Right-click on the printer and select "Use Printer Online".
f. The display should change to ready when the printer is set to online.

Step 2:
If still you are facing issues, then update the printer driver. This should fix the problem.

Canon MP 610 Printer

For hard to reach jammed paper I cut a 1” x 11” piece of 11pt synthetic paper. Then notched a series of V’s into one side. It’s a very effective tool to feed through hard to reach areas of the paper path and clear jams.
I chose synthetic paper since it’s extremely durable and won’t tear off and contribute to the jam issue.

Keeps telling me it is off line-how can I correct it so I can print

First check on the device and printer under control panel if the status of your printer is offline or ready. If it is offline check your usb cable if properly connected and if ready state then if you send print job set to offline try to reinstall the driver. hopefully it will help you.

My HP Officejet J4540 All-in-one printer is showing Offline. I have checked all connections and all appears ok. Could you tell me how to change that status to Ready?

It shows offline if the printer is not communicating. Initially open printers folder and right click the printer icon and check if "use offline" option is not ticked.if its ticked then un-tick it. if everything looks fine then:
1)first try unplugging printer from main power cord for a minute and then plug back in and check after refreshing if it becomes ready.
2)other thing to do is to remove the usb cable from behind the printer and plug back in after 45 seconds.
3)it is also quite possible that the usb port or cable might have gone faulty.in that case try replacing usb cable and check.
thanks ,keep updated and accept the solution.

It keeps telling me it's offline

If printer is off line it needs to be set to "use printer online". If using Windows, go to ctrl/panel, open Printers, right click on your Cannon Printer. Move down to "Use printer online" and click on it. It should now work.
