Yeah, wireless printers can eat my refuse. I just spent a fruitless hour fixing my neighbours printer. Their crime? Restarting the router spooked the printer connection to the network. Shit system integration and poor documentation make this job needlessly painful.
I have a wireless Canon. Has worked flawlessly for years. Never had any issues. Replace the ink every now and again and it keeps chugging.
I believe you. We can make wireless stuff work if we really want to. My Bluetooth headset links with the phone perfectly every time. Attempt the same trick with Teams on a PC, forget about it. Wifi generally seems quite solid these days but if I get a choice I will use ethernet. It would have to be really bad to warrant going back to wired headphones but with a printer, meh. I don’t walk around my house with it and run a few copies from the kitchen.
I suspect you are single? Because I can tell you a partner will mess any wireless printer up.
If anybody has issues with your printers wireless connection constantly dropping. Try setting a static IP address for the printers wifi connection. I’ve fixed 3 wireless printers by doing this. My wife’s work bought her a new wireless laser printer 2 years ago. Thing would lose its ip address every time it went into sleep mode, and it would only reacquire an IP address about half the time. Changed it to a static IP address, and now it always just works.
