Printer driver vs standby
Indeed this seems rather odd, and also a inconvenience. However, after following up with some research I found following Microsoft Knowledge Base. In a nutshell, any one of the following may cause Standby mode not to function properly becasue of this printer: device drivers, a program running in the background which interferes with Standby mode, or a BIOS Power Saving setting which needs to be enabled. So you may have to continue disabling the printer, or contact the hardware manufacturer from the printer to find out if any updates are coming to resolve that odd issue.
