Envy 4250

Recently, had to replace my original Apple Airport with a modem/router from Spectrum. All devices (laptop, iPad, phones) connected to the new network. The Envy 4250 connected but after a few hours it was not available. Devices would get the "No AirPrint printers found". The solution is to unplug, not just power off, the printer and restart all devices. Then the printer is available  for a few hours. I have assigned the printer a static IP address outside the range of DHCP on the router. It seems like if I could keep the printer from going Auto Off it may stay connected but that feature is preset and cannot be configured. Any idea?

Hi!
I saw this kind of trouble for several times.

 

There were ink alert reported then.
Sometimes ink quantity is low, others not using genuine cartrige.

 

I hope this will help you.

I did replace the black ink cartridge, no change. Very frustrating as I like the printer and its functions. Just tired of having to mess with it every time I want to print.
