I too run a Canon printer, model 882. However, I find when using the system on a wifi only connection, remember there is a timeout on the assigned address. What has worked well for me is to determine what addresses are in the router pool. Then pick one that is not within the pool, ie 192.168.1.250. Your IP set may be different. On the printer, manually assign that chosen address. The connect the printer with a network cable directly to the router. Then the router will have that address known and can connect the computer to the printer. On the printer, indicate the printer is on a wired network. I have had less issues doing this than expecting the computer to find the printer in the entire IP set.
