If this correct and you saw it working before you bought it then you need to check your cable since that is the communication path to the computer.

If you didn't see it functioning then it may be DOA.

Everything seems to be functioning installing new ink cartridges today, driver download worked, I may pick up a new usb printer cable those often wear out being plugged in and out and try a WiFi reset on the printer too.

if printer WiFi doesn’t work but usb does guess will just use that.
