Lexmark printer offline on windows 10, I have a Lexmark printer at home for over two years now. Recently I have updated my computer Operating system to Windows 10 from Windows 7 and my printer would not connect to the same computer after update? Why does this happen, I have not changed any kind of settings but still the problem persists. I need to fix it immediately, please if anyone have any idea what is wrong, kindly revert back.

Delete Old Pending Jobs –

Sometimes, a printer becomes offline due to old pending jobs. So, you have to clear old print jobs manually before printing any new documents. For clearing previous printing jobs, navigate to “Devices & Printers” in Control Panel and press double click on the printer where old print jobs need to be erased. Just press a right-click and erase all of them.

Restart Print Spooler Service –

At various times, print spooler service automatically stopped so you have to restart it manually so your system can manage printer and print jobs.
