Printer needs a reboot if not used (Airport Express/2007 MacBook/Samsung printer)

[patent10021]

Very annoying! Have an older Samsung 2010 laser printer and 2007 white MaBook with 2007 AE. All are in great shape with no issues except for this printing bug.

If I don't use the printer within a few minutes I have to turn the printer off and on again to make the printer recognize the task or whatever the reason is.

Maybe try removing the printer from system preferences and then installing it back again. Could also try removing it from the network, then reconnecting it back to the network. Had an HP printer that did same thing.
