Did you unplug them, restart the router and later the printer?
Have you deleted the printer and tried to add it again?

Power cycle the router (turn it off and on).

Do you have a mac? Did you recently upgrade to Snow Leopard? The drivers are now stored on Apple’s servers, so maybe there was trouble regarding the drivers.
