Try to reset the printer's wireless network settings. On the printer operator panel, press Setup button > Network Setup > Wireless Setup > Reset Network Adapter > press check to confirm.
Re-launch the Lexmark Wireless Setup Utility to connect the printer to your network. If you have a firewall enabled, make sure to allow full access to all Lexmark software and printer communication processes in the program rules/permissions for your firewall. Also, place your printer where it receives excellent wireless signal quality and away from other electronic devices which can cause wireless interferences (e.g. cordless phones, microwave ovens, baby monitors, garage door openers, and other wireless electronics).
Wireless
communication issues could be due to wireless signal quality, signal
interference, firewall, etc. Make sure your printer is positioned where it
receives excellent wireless signal strength (avoid physical obstructions
whenever possible) and away from appliances which emit wireless signals (e.g.
microwave ovens, cordless telephones, baby monitors, and other wireless
electronics) that may cause interference. Make sure to allow full
access to all Lexmark software and printer communication processes in the program
rules/permissions for your firewall.
