not printing until turning printer off and turning printer back on again and random E2 error codes.

[Rick1986]

Printer wont print documents until turned off and turned back on again and this for each document sent to print.

break down of issue:

I have the printer turned on and out of standby, ready to print.

When I click print in word or any other program to send a document to print, nothing happens, the document gets stuck in the print queue and the windows print queue says attention required.

I then have to turn off the printer, turn it back on, wake it up out of standby to get it to print the document.

If I want to print multiple documents, I have to repeat these steps over and over again for each document to get it to print.

I also randomly get the E2 error code even though there is no mismatch in paper size selected on my computer and the paper size in the printer. (A4 paper selected on computer, A4 paper inserted in printer.)
