My computer states that it can't find my printer. Your AI operator continues to hang upon me. Please let me talk to Technical Support.

    Dear Don Lum,

    Based on your description, I understand how frustrating this must be, especially when you need to print an important Excel document and have been unable to get assistance.

    For better assist, could you please provide the following details?

    • What is the make and model of your printer?
    • Is the printer connected via USB, Wi-Fi, or a network connection?
    • Are you able to print successfully from other applications, such as Word?
    • Do you receive any specific error message when attempting to print from Excel? If so, please take a screenshot and share it with me.
    • Did the issue start recently, or has the printer never worked with Excel on this computer?

    In the meantime, please try the following quick checks:

    1. Confirm that the printer is powered on and appears under Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners.
    2. Restart both the computer and the printer.
    3. Open the Excel file and select File > Print, then verify that the correct printer is selected.
    4. Try printing a different Excel workbook to determine whether the issue is specific to one file.

    If the issue still persists and you would like to speak with Microsoft Support for further investigation, you can create a support request through the Microsoft 365 Admin Center.

    For reference:Get support | Microsoft Docs       

    The support team over there has higher permission than us to investigate the issue from background, they have more resource and correct escalation channel in handling this kind of issues. This would be a more efficient way in handling the case for you.  

    If you would prefer to continue working with me, please feel free to answer the questions I outlined above, complete the troubleshooting steps I provided, and let me know the results.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding so far.   

    Hope you having a nice day and really much warm regards to you as well!
