I concur with your feelings on those types of software (in general) create more issues than they resolve.Īgain, a huge Thank You for your willingness to take the time to reply to my post.

I do not have any non-Apple security or "cleaning" software on either of my MacOS devices.

Further, Windows devices I have on the same network (WinXP, Win7, and Win10) do not experience the same printing issue. Both printers are current on BIOS/Firmware updates, as is the wireless network itself. However, I have had this issue with a previous wireless router, which I replaced with a more "commercial" Ubiquiti Networks wireless networking system. I would agree that, based on my experiences, the printers and/or the network itself would be the indicated cause of the issue. Needless to say, if you are using any non-Apple "anti-virus", "cleaning", or "Internet security" junk, anything at all in that broad category of useless garbage, don't. Each one suggests different causes, so report your result. Most likely, you will get either "request timeout" or "no route to host". If it should occur again, determine if you can ping the printers. Since it involves multiple Macs and multiple printers, the only remaining component common to all your devices-and most likely to be responsible-is the router.Ī static IP address is a very good idea. The fact the problem has persisted since Snow Leopard strongly suggests an underlying cause beyond your Macs, and installing new (non-AirPrint) printer queues isn't likely to help. If AirPrint doesn't result in 100% reliability, Apple would refer you to both the printer and wireless router's respective manufacturers for the possibility of firmware updates that could resolve the problems.

The only comment I have is to use AirPrint to the extent possible, since it is the only method Apple will unequivocally stand behind and support. You already did everything reasonable to isolate the problem in fact you exhausted nearly every potential cause.

I will update this thread with my observations with this experiment after it's been in place for a while.Īny comments or suggestions anyone can or wants to offer are welcome! I have just installed a second instance of the Epson printer, and forced the queue to be IP-based (instead of the default, Bonjour or AirPrint options) to see if this will "fix" the issue. I have already reset the entire printing system on both Macs and reinstalled both printers this did not resolve the issue. The only reliable method for resolving the issue appears to be opening the printer's status page (webpage) this seems to "reset" the printing system and restore proper communication with the printer (for a while at least). Rebooting the Mac having the issue seldom resolves the issue. Rebooting my wireless router does not resolve the issue.

Rebooting the printer does not resolve the issue.

This occurs both on my Macbook Pro and my iMac machines, both of which are up-to-date with the current build of High Sierra. Inspection of the queue reveals a "Looking for Printer" message. On occasion (seemingly randomly) I attempt to print to one or both of my printers and the print jobs just sit in the queue. Both printers are within 25 feet of my wireless router and both report excellent signal strength. Both printers connect wirelessly, and both are assigned static IP addresses. I have a wireless network at my home, with an HP printer (HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 series) and an Epson printer (Workforce WF-7620). This has been occurring at least since Snow Leopard, and I've finally decided to post a question here for feedback. I am having a perplexing issue with printing.
