Just got this printer today and I am ready to pull my hair out. I am having the same issues. I just tried your fix with the static IP sp I will see how it goes.
After a year of perfectly decent wireless printing on my Canon MG6100 it quit printing and showed "printer offline" in Settings. The printer worked fine with a USB cable attached. I fixed the problem by going to the setup screen on the printer, to the wifi set up, and entering the newtork acess code again.
I'm having difficulty connecting my HP Photosmart 7200 printer over my home network. I recently added a password to my AirPort and now my MacBook Pro says my printer is offline. I've turned it on and off again, unplugged it, tried to add a new printer under System Preferences, etc., with no luck.
I did print out a printer status report from the printer menu. But under the URL/IP address it says "http://0.0.0.0" and when I try to change it on the priner manually, the keypad won't let me. It did work before I added the password to my network, but now I'm at a loss to get it printing wirelessly again. I can scan to a USB drive, but as for printing, no luck.
I'll keep researching, but this is getting a bit frustrating. I appreciate the tips others have given here that worked for them. If anyone else has advice, I would welcome it! If I figure it out on my end,I'll let you know how I did it in case it works for you as well.
Thanks!
nlkflint - THIS WORKED - MY WIRELESS HPD110 HAS ALWAYS BEEN A BUGGER WHEN IT CAME TO WORKING. IT ALWAYS WORKED PLUGGED IN VIA USB, BUT RARELY THROUGH THE NETWORK. THIS SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED IT FINALLY!!! THANKS FOR POSTING!!!!
I keep typing th URL in, and it won't bring me to anything. It says that the webpage can't be found. Am I doing something wrong? Help!
My new iPad 3 found my wireless printer (HP Photosmart D110a) but said it was "offline." What finally worked for me was changing the IP Address to a static one. That fixed it right away!!!

-- Print out a printer status report from the printer menu. In the internet search on your browser type in your printer URL/IP address. Go in and CHANGE THE IP ADDRESS TO A STATIC IP ADDRESS. Click yes where it asks if you want the printer to suggest one. I did that, used the suggested IP address, and during the process of setting this up I did lose my connection. I just went to the printer, turned it off and then on. You can even run the printer wizard again and IT WILL RETAIN THE STATIC IP ADDRESS.
Thank you to whoever posted this!!
