Check the printer properties in the control panel. Look in the status column. If the status is paused or offline, select resume or online or reset from the Printer menu option. Sometimes you have to turn the printer off and back on for it to start again. If it is an inkjet printer, don't unplug it. Some printers get messed up if they are not powered off using the power button.

Once you have added either a USB or networked printer to your PC or Mac computer, you can begin sending documents to print. However, on occasion, a print command will create an error on the printer and take it offline, which will prevent all future jobs from printing. To resolve this issue, you will need to change your printer settings from offline to online.

This will open a window with a list of the printers currently set up on your computer. - Double-click on the icon of the printer you want to change to online.

This action will change the printer from offline to online.

this is very common problem for f300 series PSC

just delete the printer from printers and faxes and reboot the machine it will install printer again

there is funny thing abt this series it is saying offline when powered on and connected but when you disconnect iit will say "offline-use printer offline"

please try my solution and rate it
thanks

the message "phone off hook" is a normal message if you will used your phone, just ignore that message.

- if you cant print first thing you do is to goto start>control panel>printer and faxes then check the iocn if it is online of offline if it is offline just right click the icon and set printer online and if there is pending documents, right click again the icon and select cancel documents.
- if still the same your printing is not printing then you must uninstall and reinstall the software
