I have a Cisco 2960S gig switch configured in transparent mode with multiple vlans configured. I have printers that I can ping, the ports shows up but on the printer it says offline. Any idea what could be causing this?

Being offline is probabaly a function of the printer. As long as you can ping the printer's IP, the connectivity is good. Check the printer.

If your printer and your PCs are all in the same subnet and only the printer is not working then VTP mode Transparent has nothing to do with your issue.
I'd be keen to know if you have a firewall blocking anything from the IP address of the printer? Maybe the IP subnet mask or default gateway of the printer is not working?
What do you get when you do a "sh mac-address interface <PRINTER port>"?
