Printer Offline Error in Creality Print

Tried to print this morning after being on leave for 3 weeks - took an hour to figure out how to solve this error message:

Error: “Printer Offline” when trying to Print your models

Cause: Wifi/Fiber Router was reset upon return from holiday - IP Address on Printer and IP Address in Creality Print are no longer the same.

Fix: Click “Add Scan” under the “Device” tab at the top of the Creality Print window: Prepare / Preview / Device. Device with the ‘old’ IP address will automatically disappear.

Hope it helps someone to not have to search the web for hours and use some spicy words before they can start printing :wink:

Which version of Creality Print? And yes the IP address does change even if you leave the machine on permanently, I guess it depends on how your router is setup and IP leases. If you can work out how to assign it a fixed IP address that would be your answer.

I did what u said and boom it worked, thank u so much for that. I was so confused as to why that happened or how to fix it. I usually run my printer every single day but yesterday was the first day I didn’t print since I’ve owned it and today my first print and it was offline and had no idea how or what happened from printing fine day before yesterday
