Disable Wireless In Dell V515w

How can I do this? I use USB and keep getting the message Communication not available. Must restart PC. I think it is the WiFi on the printer that is causing this.

Hi Kenheitland, 

Would recommend uninstalling the printer software and reinstalling it from the link mentioned below:

Choose the Operating system installed on the system and install the software for USB.

Do keep me posted with the results.

Thanks & Regards
