after some time, I can’t find my printer wirelessly from any device. I can then restart the printer and successfully find it for a few days until it can no longer be found and I have to restart it yet again. Any ideas?

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Let's restore the settings on the printer:

 

1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, swipe until the Setup menu displays. Touch the Setup icon to open the menu. 2. Scroll to and select the Service menu. 3. Scroll to and select Restore Defaults, and then touch OK. The printer automatically restarts.

 

Once done, connect the Printer back to the Wi-Fi.

 

Let me know if this helps.
