HP OfficeJet Pro 6978
macOS 10.12 Sierra

So, I use the HP Easy Start on my new Mac (Sierra OS). I am connected wirelessly from my computer to my printer. 

 

I am able to print the test page, scan, finish the set up, etc. I go to print the document I actually want to print, and the printer only prints ONE page of a 4 page document, stops printing, pinwheel of death on the print screen, and an "offline" notification on  my computer. The printer REFUSES to go back online, and I have to uninstall the WHOLE thing just to get it back online. Then the cycle repeats. WHAT IS GOING ON!!!???

 

And I have good wireless connection and speed. 20 mbps download and almost 2 mbps upload. Please help!
