Printing problems with MacOS 10.15.7 Catalina I’m having problems with printers and my iMac. At beginning i can install and print, but after a while i can’t use the printer although i can access it’s console through the browser. I tried to reinstall it but to no avail. I already had this problem with canon, kyocera and riso machines. All in different windows network environment. Is it a known problem? is there a solution for it?

2020 iMac. I've downloaded the Canon app, but it can't find the printer. (I'm on shared wi-fi.) Thanks.
