Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're encountering a frustrating situation when trying to print to several printers on your wireless networks. There are several components involved, and I can offer a few suggestions on where to begin troubleshooting.
First, make sure your MacBook Pro is connecting to your Wi-Fi network before trying to print. You can use the tips in this article to help diagnose Wi-Fi connection issues on your Mac:

Next, try this method to reset the printing system on the Mac and reinstall the printer drivers:
- Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
- If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
- Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, your solution is the problem. I continue to have to delete and add the printers. While I can get it to work this way, its a HUGE hassle and I should not have to. Its a very expensive machine to not even maintain a printer connection!
