2300dn stops working due to inactivity (connected via network) [ Edited ]

Hi, I recently installed a 2300dn, it's connected via network cable directly to router. Everything else accesses it using their wireless connection to router. When it was started and configured, things printed out perfectly. But then after a while of inactivity, the printer won't connect to anybody. Nobody can print, when trying to ping the IP address manually assigned on the printer, I get this

Pinging 192.168.1.253 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.1.69: Destination host unreachable.
Request timed out.
Reply from 192.168.1.69: Destination host unreachable.
Request timed out.

.69 being the ip address of my laptop that I am pinging from. The only solution is to go to the printer, turn it off and on again. Is there a way to get this working?

I also cannot connect to the webpage built into the printer.

I've also tried restarting the router from my browser, still no luck
