PIXMA G6020 won't connect to devices (sporadically)

rooftechnwa — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 21:49:46 GMT

Hello, I hope you can help me with a reoccurring issue!

My printer will *not* connect to my devices. It's sporadic, and will last either a day or two - or sometimes just 30 minutes. When I try to print while the printer is "having it's fit", it will behave as though the printer is either not on or not connected to the wi-fi. I check the printer's settings, and it's connected. It happened once every now and again for the past few months, but the past week it's been *constant*. I don't understand, I've installed the updates, I've attempted the "easy connect" thing, I've checked if it might be my wi-fi, but it's just *not working*. It's interfering with my ability to do my job.

Any help would be appreciated!

For sure - there's no *error code* on the printer. The computer tells me "The printer is offline. Check that the printer is connected and the power is on" whenever I hit the print button. The printer, again, shows nothing - lights are on but there's no connection. Wifi is on, it's conencted to the wifi through wireless. I use Windows 11Pro?
