Hi.
I just purchased an MX922 and I cannot get it to connect to my wireless network. I have gone through both the WPS and the manual WLAN setup but in both cases - after it says it completed successfully - the printer does not have an associated IP address either in the printer or in the "Attached Devices" when I look at my router (although I do see the printer's MAC ID visible in my router; it just doesn't have an associated IP address and the printer doesn't show an IP address either when I check the settings in WLAN settings.
I did a full reset of the printer and it seemed to connect to the network long enough to be visible by my Mac in the "Add Printer" phase but my Mac was never able to successfully connect (it hung on "Configuring Device Settings") and I can only assume that is because the printer was not actually on the network.
I tried the Reset All again and I still cannot get it to connect (Blue Wifi LED is on but printer does not have an IP address). I have a Mac sitting right next to it successfully connected to the same WiFi that I am trying to connect this printer to with full signal but the printer will not connect.
Any advice?
Thanks.
Jeremy

I am trying to configure this on 2 different Macs (one running 10.9.5 and the other running 10.11.5). The Canon printer is not able to connect to either one via WiFi.
Make sure that the security of your access point is not only allowing for the new connection, but granting it access to the local LAN.
