MG5450 multifunction printer AirPrint problem.

[NeilWalker]

My newly acquired MG5450 works OK with iPad2 AirPrint for about 5 minutes, afterwards I have to either press "HOME" or switch the printer off and then on again for it to continue to work.  I have updated the printer firmware to the fuu_w10_mg5400-1_0-ea7 version.  Is there a later version?

Had the same issue, found the cause after a lot of troubleshooting.
With a normal browser, browse to the ip address of the printer.
In one of the menus find this setting:

[Wireless LAN DRX setting];
Specify whether Wireless LAN DRX is to be enabled or disabled.
When this setting is enabled, wireless LAN will be in sleep mode during intervals between signals from the access point, thus reducing power consumption.

Turn this off, apply, and the printer doesn't disappear anymore.
