Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8 (64-bit)

My printer works fine after all these years 2015.

But it keeps dropping the wireless connection.

 

I unplug the connection and reboot to fix it

 

Very annoying.   It happens generally when the printer is not used for 15 minutes or so

Should I reinstall the printer?

Please give your printer a fix (or static) IP address, this may help.

 

1. Record its existing IP address (touch to the antenna symbol),
2. Touch Home then touch Setup,
3. Touch Network setup,
4. Touch Wireless settings,
5. Touch Advanced settings,
6. Touch IP settings
7. Touch Ok,
8. Touch Manual,
9. Touch IP Address (it should show existing IP address)
10. Now change the last 3 digits from something to something greater than 100
11. Touch Done then Ok

 

Reboot the printer.

 

Regards.
