In such a situation, this workaround might be helpful.

  • Turn off all your devices, printer included.
  • Turn off your modem-router for at least 1 minute, then turn it back on, waiting for its complete autoconfiguration.
  • Turn your printer back on
  • Turn all your other devices back on, and connect them to your wifi network.
  • Test if Airprint now "sees" your printer.
