I can print just fine from any mobile phone but when I try to connect and print anything from my computer, or any computer it fails to connect. I have even tried to print using a cabled connection and the printer still fails to recognize my laptop. I have installed and uninstalled the printer software several times and I have factory reset the printer several times. Nothing has worked to fix it.
