Product: HP Laserjet m402n
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
This printer is setup in an office. I have a static IP set for the printer as well as a DNS entry on the network.
Any time the printer goes to sleep it looses network connection. A print job sent to the shared printer does not wake it up. If you manually wake up the printer it doesn't have an IP address. If I unplug the printer and plug it back in, the assigned IP address shows up and I can print.
I have checked power settings, but there is no way to completely turn off the sleep feature.
I've dug through the web interface for the printer as well.
Any suggestions?
