I have Epson L3250 printer and I connect to new router problem that printer start work randomly. After I power ON printer work fine but after some time it stop work and need again turn OFF and ON it. Another strange behaviours that this printer almost never apear in router network map  even it work and print it still not apears in router network map most time. I check with 3 rd party app and looks everything fine it shown in network map. Any idea what can couse that problem ? That printer is randomly appears and disappear from router network map. Btw than printer appears in map router show that it was all time connected due I see uptime ~30min for example even all that time printer wasn't shown on map.

I hate that the cop-out answer is the most probable one; the majority of printers suck and will continue to be flakey and terrible and they haven't had really any significant functionality or stability or QOL improvements in about the last 15 years, and until paper is no longer required, we pretty much just have to take what they give us and hope they don't make them even worse. 

I can tell you the least fussy printers I've used have been BROTHER printers, with Epson in a solid second, followed by HP and then Canon. 

 

What I can give as advice is to use IP printing on as many devices as possible, that's how I've gotten around the majority of the "I don't WANT to be a printer!!!!!" behaviour.
