Newbe here. My wife had Joey added to her Dish TV system a few weeks ago. It's located in my den along with my laptop, router, and wireless printer. I had occasion to print something today for they first time since Joey and find that I can only "print to file" as a .prn file. Perhaps it has nothing to do with Joey but is it possible since they are both wireless?

No a Wireless Joey or Wireless Access Point shouldn't interfere with your wireless printer. I have my WAP on a shelf right above my wireless printer with no issues. The Dish WAP uses 5Ghz wifi frequency. The WiFi SSID is also hidden, so no other device will connect to it.

You could also prove it to yourself, temporarily unplug the WAP and see if that changes the printer issue. As noted, I doubt it...
I am assuming you are using Win10. In the search box type in "Printers & Scanners." Select your printer and press the Manage button. Then click on "Run the troubleshooter." Fixes mine when Win10 loses my printer.
