Hi
I have no experience with this specific printer. things i look for: is there a piece of paper jammed, there is usually a removable panel on the back of the printer that lets you check the paper path. if that is clear, remove the paper in the machine an turn it over and reinstall. sometime the edges curl up and won't feed. if you still have a problem remove power from printer. in computer delete all outstanding print documents. verify printer is set to online. turn off computer. reconnect power to printer, wait for it to complete its startup . turn on computer, again verify printer is set to online and try to print test page.
most problems are paper jams that cause the computer to put the printer offline, or the document being printer has unrecognizable characters that cause the printer to get scrambled. the computer will also show it as offline.

hope this helps

Thanks for your responds . I had to take the printer to go fix it by professional. They charged me the same price i bought the printer. That sucks..
