my printer continues to loose connection

[sybhe]

I have installed the driver each time with success.   I can print with ease and no problems.  I leave the computer for a bit of time or over night and boom.  I can not print.  I now say the printer is offline. The only way to correct it is to reinstall all the drivers again.   I have done this now for 4 days.  this can not continue.  I must be doing something wrong.  please help.
