If your printer is on Wi-Fi, ensure it's connected to the same network as your computer. Check the printer's Wi-Fi settings to confirm the connection. You may need to manually add the printer in your operating system, specifying the network discovery and IP address. Also, ensure your firewall isn't blocking communication with the printer.
