MacBookPro stopped printing to my wireless printer.

After the last update to OS 11.6 I cannot print wirelessly. The printer icon states the printer is "offline."


I can print wirelessly from my iPhone so the problem has to be with my MacBookPro. The problem started after the OS automatically updated.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.2
