    Offline wifi printer


    Apologies for being thick & old!

    … after a while my Epson printer, connected by wifi, goes offline if not in use.

    To get it back 'online' is a right pfaff, switching it off, connecting back to wifi, fighting with settings to get it to print again.

    Please - there MUST be a faster way of getting a connected default printer to be back 'online' to enable its use. Someone please enlighten one the aged!

    Thanks in advance guys.

    :)

  2. Canon printer wifi trouble

    Set a static IP on the printer else each time it switches off and on may get different ip which may not function correctly
    Try
    Delete the Printer after setting static ip

    Devices and printer
    >add printer
    >>Add local printer (not network even though on wifi)
    >>>Create new port - click standard Tcp/Ip
    >>>>enter ip address of printer that set before and any port name
    Select the printer driver from list

    Try a test print to see if working then switch off and on and see if come back online

    turn printer off and On

    See if comes back online

    Network Printer can either be set by Ip address or Printer network name
    Static ip always the best to set

  3. Canon printer wifi trouble

    Hey,

    I installed my canon pixma mg3210 with the newest driver and I choose wifi connection.

    Eveyrthing works fine until I turn off the printer then my laptop doesn't detect the printer anymore.
    Basically, the printer is offline.

    Offline wifi printer

    Wi-fi printer goes Offline

    I have an Epson SX420W wifi connected to a router Belkin 54g. The network consists of a desktop PC and a notebook with Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit, and a notebook with windows 7, all connected wirelessly to the router and all with the latest epson drivers installed. The printer connects to the router is successful, as well as the network test from the panel of the printer. Installing the printer on the various devices was successful, as well as various proofs. The problem is that sometimes the printer is detected by the devices on the network like "offline", even though it is turned on, properly connected, as the test outcome. What happens for no apparent reason, in some cases it works perfectly while in others it is offline.
    Do you know what can depend on and how to fix?
