In order to establish a good signal between the printer and access point, you might have to experiment a bit. Assuming the equipment is functioning properly, try doing the following things separately or in combination:

If there is a long distance between the computer or access point and the printer, move them closer.

If a cordless telephone, microwave, or other device that emits radio signals transmitting at 2.4 GHz is nearby, move it farther away to reduce radio interference.
