Ensure the printer is physically connected to the computer (or network) and turned on. Check the printer's control panel for any error messages. Try restarting the printer. If it's a network printer, verify network connectivity and that the printer has a valid IP address. Also, check if the 'Use Printer Offline' option is unchecked in the printer's properties.
