1. Find the DeviceHub icon in Windows system tray (small icons near the clock) or Mac OS menu bar.
2. Right-click on the DeviceHub icon and choose Reconnect.
   
3. Once the DeviceHub icon appears, hover your mouse over the icon to see the connection status and wait until it shows an Online status.

Solution 5: Activate DeviceHub

1. Select Settings > My Devices.
2. Select Activate DeviceHub.
3. Click the Activate button again in the pop-up window.
4. If successful, a new browser tab window will open with a "DeviceHub registered successfully!" message.
5. Close the new browser tab and select Settings > My Devices again.
6. If your printers are still not displayed, click the Refresh button on the My Devices page.

Your PitneyShip Cube should now be online and ready to print.
