Need to Restart Print Spooler to Print (every time)

Per the title: If I print something (win 11 25H2) the print will go to the queue and just sit there. It shows "Ready", but it stays in the queue. I have to go into Services and restart the Print Spooler. Then it prints. Restarting the print job from the print queue itself does not help.

I need to do this for every print job i.e. 1) I send something to the printer from a program; 2) It hangs in the queue; 3) I restart the Print Spooler; 4) It prints. If I try to print something else a few minutes later then I need to restart the Print Services, again.

If I reboot, that will correct it, but at some point it will return to this auto-stall mode. That is, my system will have been up for several days and sleeping at night. At some point along the way the queue will start holding. (it might be sticking after sleeping... I'll be checking that in the morning as I just thought of it).

The printer is hanging off the router. I'm printing wirelessly through the router. No other devices have any issues with printing to this same printer through the same router.

Suggestions?
