When I sent document from either my iMac or iphone, my MFP M281fdw printer will display "Printing Document" for a couple of seconds then stop. Printer does not print and there's nothing in the print queue. Same for using either wireless printing or using USB. It has worked before and the problem only occurs a week ago. I don't have any problem with using my PC to print on this printer.

Next Remove and Re-add the printer using Airprint. AirPrint is an Apple technology that helps you create full-quality printed output without the need to download or install drivers.
1.) Click the Apple menu, click System Preferences, and then click Print & Scan or Printers & Scanners.
2.) Check if your printer name displays in the Printers list, If your printer is listed, click the printer name, click the minus sign to delete the printer.
3.) If you see multiple printer queues for the same printer, remove all extra printers by selecting them one at a time, and then clicking the minus button at the bottom of the list.
4.) Click the plus sign , click Add Printer or Scanner, click the printer name.
5.) Click the Use or Print Using menu, select AirPrint or Secure AirPrint in the pop-up menu. Then click Add.

Let me know how it goes😊
