PIXMA MG5760 Starlink connection is erratic

i HAVE JUST CONNECTED TO sTARLINK AND MY pIXMA 5760 canon printer is behaving erratically

1. Takes at least 3 minutes to respond

2. Various messages: Printer is offline, printer not responding, port in use please wait, 

3. prints a copy eventually but printer does not recognise it has printed it and reprints it

4. you have to delete print queue to stop printing as the print queue dies not react when item is printed

5. I have contacted Canon who basically had me check settings which were ok, restart my computer. This fixed the problem but it has returned and the aforementioned solution is not working.

Greetings 

I would suggest you separate the bands and broadcast on your starlink router. Give the 2.4 GHz broadcast a unique name.  Connect the printer to this broadcast. 

Assign the printer of static IP address on the router.  

Remove the printer from your computer and restart your system.

Now re-add the printer using the IP address you reserved for it previously.  

Retest printing.
