G7020 goes offline

My G7020 printer goes offline. Sometimes restarting the printer will bring it back online but not always. Running windows 10. Printer shows in Control Panel as Canon G7000 Series. Somehow a G7000 Series (copy 1) shows also. When checking Printer Properties, the port USB003 is checked although I do not have a USB connection with the G7020 printer.
