MF4890dw Periodic Wireless Printing Error (Very Frustrating)

Hi,

 

Problem:  I'm running Windows 8.1 on my Lenovo X240 and printing to my Canon MF4890dw wirelessly using my D-LINK DIR-615 (Hardware Version B2, Firmware Version 2.23).  I can succesfully print wirelessly from my computer but there are times were I get printing error messages.  When I check the MF4890dw printer queue, my print job has a "Error - Printing" status.  I notice that I get this error after I successfuly send 1-2 print jobs.  What I observe is that the previous 1-2 print jobs have a status = "Sent to printer" that does not clear the printer queue.  Could this be causing the problem????  Attached is a screenshot of my erroneous scenario.

 

Current Workarounds: 

 

#1 - I reboot my computer.  After Windows boots up, the erroneous print job "sometimes" prints automatically.  If it doesn't I send the print job again to the printer.

 

#2 - I delete the print job that errored out.  I power down my router and printer (in that order).  Then I power up my router and printer (in that order). I send the print job again to the printer.

 

Please advise given this is very frustrating and that this Canon printer is not meeting my expectations.
