Hi otho10,

 

The MX892 does not support remotely powering the printer off and on.  My best recommendation would be to leave the printer on at all times and let it enter power save mode.  It uses very little power in this mode, and this way the printer will be ready to use when you need it.

There's gotta be an easy answer but I sure can't find it in the community q&a.
