Canon Maxify GX4020 - Printing Blank Pages, Test Print Fine

[HonestAbe]

Just set up the system last week and it worked fine. Today I tried to print a basis black and white article and it sent out a blank page. The system is wifi, the system turned on fine. So I printed a test page which came out properly. Tried another print of the article and still nothing... ????????

Thank you, for providing some of the information I requested.  So we have the model, connection method and your OS.  

What drivers did you install?  

Visit the link I provided.  The Master Setup or Printer Driver and Scan Utility v1.02 would have been correct for Windows 11.  Installing drivers on top of a failed install doesn't always work.  

The drivers supplied by windows are not complete and would probably not allow the printer/scanner to fully function.

I suggest you start over.  Remove the printer from the Printers menu under Settings.  Uninstall the drivers from Control Panel > Programs and Features.  

important: restart your system.  

Now run one of the installers I referenced above and re-add the printer to your system.

If you continue to experience issues, please tell me what it is your printing, example (file type), .docx, .PDF...   and if you have tried printing from more than one app.  (Browser, office, Adobe, etc).
