If the unplugging and plugging back in doesn't work, just uninstall the printer, then hit add new printer, (your model will show up on the list of printers) and reinstall. That usually works for me.

Click ok or press enter
Scroll down to Printer Spooler service
RIGHT click on print spooler

Can you recommend someone you have used that is trustworthy?

TIA
We used Scott Wilcox phone 352 461-5164. We were pleased, cost reasonable.
We used him twice. We recommended him to a neighbor and they too were happy.

I am far from a computer expert. Wireless? They usually give the option of a cable connection and they supply the cable. I would try that. I would shut all off and turn it back on. I would try a reinstall. Depending on what printer you have. It is amazing how inexpensive they are. We bought a lazer printer scanner, fax it is B&W only if, I recall it was $100. For a tech to come to your home it will cost you around that. Say $65 or $85 compared to a new machine. My unit is ??? about 6 years old. We put ink into it.
Typically they give you a limited amount of ink to get you started on their gocha habit.
The ink is close to what you pay for the machine

Had this problem last week. I'm sure a Windows update caused it. I uninstalled my printer and reinstalled it and it worked.

Make sure that both the printer and the computer is on the same network. That kept happening to me, my printer was not signed into my network
