I was printing various documents via ethernet connection and now nothing prints.  Get error message that server is offline.  Please advise as all my printers use ethernet connection.

Your asking peer to peer. 

Note that more info is needed for anyone to make very good suggestions.

You presumably have tried restaring your printers and checking their connections and tried rebooting the router.  What printers, routers, OS, etc.

What device are you trying to print from?  Is it on Ethernet or WiFi?

What router model and revision do you have?

If you have a Actiontec MI424WR rev I and are printing from a device that uses WiFi,  you're most likely dealing with the dreaded IGMP Proxy "feature."  Verizon disabled control of this feature in a router firmware update in early December.  Check this thread for more details:

See to the post by "tns" on 12/25 for a way to get control of IGMP proxy with the latest firmware.

If this isn't your issue, please provide much more detail as another person requested.
