Hello Arthur,

Thank you very much for your contact.

What do you want to monitor in regards to the printer precisely? Do you already have some sensors that monitor the printer? If so, which sensors do you use and where do you receive the error message in particular?

Please don't hesitate to upload pictures of your current configuration or contact us directly via email to [email protected] if you need further assistance.

Best regards,
Sebastian

Try resolve network error by reinstalling Wi-FI system's driver. Common error for drivers provided by Windows 8.1. If nothing changed, visit https://www.solutionbay.com/solutions/error-0x800704cf-the-network-location-cannot-be-reached-1/ There you will see some other solution that may wok for you: Resettng TCP/IP protocol, extended commands for CMD. Good luck :)
