Do you have any other device that can print wirelessly to the printer? This helps the forum members know whether the printer is properly set up to receive any wireless connections. If so, read the Printing section of the Help Manual (Menu, Favorites, Help Manual) and revisit Jerry's screenshots. Select Network Printer when setting up the printer, and see if anything shows.
No, I have no other devices that work via wi-fi to the printer/scanner.
Furthermore, if you seldom turn the printer on, I don't see the need for it to be used wirelessly. If you turn it on only when you're ready to print, that means you're standing right next to the printer and you might as well connect directly to it. If you want to connect to the printer wirelessly, leave it on. A driver is the software that allows your computer to use the device that the driver is for. So it is unthinkable to me to install a driver for something and have that something turned off when I'm installing it.
Good point, especially for the scanner, but printing via wi-fi is a luxury I've grown fond of. I guess I will be satisfied returning to my old Windows XP plugged in status. How do I get rid of the driver installations I did in the terminal? (One took, the other had errors)
