G6020 Issues

So, I bought this printer in May.  And it worked good!  I was using it on my desktop, then used it on my laptop.  When I put it back on the desktop, it started giving me issues.

 

I have uninstalled and re-installed it three times.  It does the Test Print page with no problems, but when I go to actually print something it says Printer Not Responding.


Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this?

Long shot, but are you using a VPN on your desktop? That caused issues with my G7020 when connecting via wifi. Hooked it up with USB and everything works fine.
