“Printer in error state” – what does that mean?

For Wireless Printers: Ensure the printer is connected to the correct Wi-Fi network. Print a Network Configuration Page (check your printer’s manual for steps). If the IP address is incorrect, reconnect using Wireless Setup Wizard (found in printer settings). For USB Printers: Try a different USB port or a new cable. Restart Printer & Computer
