I have had a 4800 series Canon printer for a number of years. It ordinarily 'sleeps' after 5 minutes, wakes for jobs when needed, no problems.
I recently replaced my Asus Router with a more robust Araknis Network and Switch. The problem is that the printer now wakes from sleep every hour, around the clock, for no apparent reason. Initially it was 1 minute after the hour, but now 2 minutes after the hour. Like clock-work.
I have rechecked all relevant settings on the printer, and nothing seems wrong.
I have involved SnapAV, who make the Araknis gear, they have logged into my system, and can't see a reason for this either.
This is a well-maintained Windows 10 Pro Dell 630i Desktop computer.
Also, this occurred with regular DHCP. I also configured both Router and Printer for a Static IP, but the hourly wake-up continues.
I'm hoping somebody can offer some insight, suggestions, or a way to fix this. Can provide other info if needed.
Thanks.
