WiFi printer connected to the network but not detected by my PC
Solved
Hello everyone,
Printing problem, it's not working!!!
A little background, a week ago I had a problem with my printer just like this, suddenly the drivers became unavailable. Apparently, it happens.
So I deleted my printer from the devices, I started an automatic detection and there it works again. Easy!
This afternoon, same thing again, so I checked the drivers = No issues
I ran a problem detection = No issues
Print status = Error
So I did like last time (deleted printer from devices) but it no longer works.
Impossible to reinstall the printer, the PC no longer detects it.
I checked, it is properly connected to the network. I even ran a diagnostic through the printer which concluded after 12 pages of incomprehensible data NO PROBLEM FOUND. CONGRATULATIONS ON THE SUCCESSFUL SETUP OF YOUR WIRELESS PRINTER.
It's amazing, yet it still doesn't print....
I also tried disabling all firewalls, it doesn't change anything.
By the way, regarding this, my private network is considered public, I wonder why! If you have any information about this, I would appreciate it.
There you go, I'm struggling!
I'm on Win10, HP Deskjet 3639 printer
Thank you very much for your responses, I really need help, my skills end here!!
Have a nice evening :)

Thank you for your answers!
It was indeed a network issue, because even from my phone, the printer was not detected.
I rebooted the router... It wasn't more complicated than that!
The network switched back to private and my PC found my printer.
Finally, thank you, I managed to figure it out, even though it wasn't rocket science, it took me 2 days to sort it out.
Hoping this discussion helps others, and that FRED has fixed their issue too.
Good luck :)
