PIXMA TR8520 Print Queue Stuck Looking for Printer

[kwright9980]

I am able to find my Canon Pixma TR8520 on my network and the Mac links to it.  Once I print one document (one page or more), it says that I am still linked to the printer but in the queue it just says looking for printer in perpetuity.  Can I resolve my issue with similar steps? I am on a Mac running Ventura 13.1.

Hi,

Go into printers and scanners on your Mac and remove the printer. Once it is removed, restart your computer. After the restart, go back into printers and scanners and add the printer back and try to print.

Did not work for me.  Printing is intermittent.  I have to turn off the printer, wait a minute, turn it on, then everything in the print cue will print.  Repeat.  Just recently started to happen. Bought mine in September of 2020.  Can't believe I'm only going to get a little over 2 years with this printer!  Hope there's a fix.
