HP 8250 problem: printer is offline
Hi,
I use a HP 8250 Photosmart inkjet printer for photos, and have had no problems until now. Suddenly, it will print from e-mails or from internet pages, but will not print my photos from Picasa. Trying to find out why, I noticed that it says that the printer is offline. How do I get it back from offline? HP no longer supports this printer. I use it for many color photos, and it is important to me. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Mort Linder |

What was your fix? My Picasa printing output was set to HP 8250. I changed it to HP 8250(1) and then it worked. I do not know why my Windows 7 has 2 icons listed for the same printer. Perhaps Bill Gates knows. Mort Linder |

Perhaps Bill Gates knows. I have seen something like that with Mac OS X. I think it was because of different USB ports or drivers.
