Will even wake from deep sleep, to shut down, though I miss the barely audible click when I hold the power button down a long time when it's on.

like the old nurse joke --- waking up a patient to take their sleeping pills

I am ethernet connected because I was using a wireless hotspot for the longest time and that was too awkward. Naturally, pulling the power or switching off an outlet strip is foolproof.

Do check your print queue if jobs are reappearing. Maybe they got held up, or you submitted them multiply when the printer was daydreaming.

Just some wild guesses.
