Yeah I've tried the route of manually inputting a static IP, it will connect to the printer but it still fails to send jobs to the printer. I've resigned to just accepting that it's incapable of WiFi printing with the HW I have, so I send documents to other devices for printing.
Try printer firmware update?
I had that same issue, what worked for me was manually removing the device which had been set up automatically because it had had been setup to only send jobs using the printer's hostname rather than its IP which my home router did not support.
What’s the print make/model?
What flavor of Linux?
