Ensure the user account has the necessary permissions to print to the printer (check in the printer's security settings, accessible through 'Devices & printers' or 'Printers & scanners'). Also, verify that the user account is logged into the domain if working in a domain environment and that the credentials are valid. Finally, ensure the network and printer configuration are correct for the domain or workgroup environment.
