My printer wifi keeps disconnecting from my laptop HPOfficeJet Pro 6960

[AUZ3]

Hi Group,

I have an HP OfficeJet Pro 6960 (out of warranty) and the wireless connection to my laptop to print has stopped. This has happened many times recently but today it won't work at all. I have updated the software and turned everything on and off (including the router) and I still can't get them to talk. I have windows 10. 

Please help. Cheers, Tracy
