MG3250 always losing connection and/or cant wake from Wifi!

Hi all,

 

I have an issue with my Canon Mg3250. I had it all setup fine and working through my Mac Mini and Wifi (printer downstairs, Mini upstrairs).

 

Afew days later I needed to print and when I tried the printer does not respond or takes ages to wake itself up and then start to print! Sometimes I have to go downstairs turn it off and back on again, which is rather annoying.

 

Whats the point of Wifi when you cant print wirelessly?! 

Anyone else had any issues and anyway to wake the printer up easily?

 

Cheers

Ugh. Im having issues too. Seems like I cant set up the wireless properly and I have to use the stupid usb cable. 

Yep, I had to setup aswell on my Windows PC with the USB and run the setup again.

Also downloaded the Canon drivers on my Mac again.

Seems to be working ok now (changed security to WPA2) will check again tomorrow, although I have now Disabled Auto Power Off and Auto Power on Enabled.

 

Will try and print tomorrow and see if there are any issues.

Just tried to print and had an error message....
