- My chromebook keeps kicking my Printer off

So I've had my printer for about a year and my chromebook for about a month longer than that. My printer and my chromebook have worked beautifully together over WiFi with no issues until about a month ago. When I turn my chromebook on and go to print a document my printer does not show up. I click on it and it says "Failed to set up printer". The only option to fix it so I can print with it is to either turn off and back on the printer or go through all of the steps to print out the ISP number for my printer and manually connect it to my chromebook (which I've done twice now). This would not bother me so much except for the fact that I'm currently in college online so I'm constantly needing to print something so I'm finding myself restarting my printer once a day (as doing it one time normally solves the problem for the rest of the time my chromebook is on) 5 times a week. What can I do to fix this if for no other reason than so I don't go insane?
