Hi redwolf.

If the MX922 is working with the other computer without issue, we can presume it's network connectivity is sufficient. Are you setting up the printer using the Windows "Add Printer" wizard, or are you running the Canon driver installation? The Canon installation will ensure the printer is recognized even when it enters standby mode, or if it's reassigned by the router (a normal weekly/monthly occurrence for most networks).

Beyond that, if your network supports 5G (5 GHz wifi), ensure that either the printer is connected to the router or modem by Ethernet (wired network connection), or that the laptop is on the standard (2.4 GHz) wifi connection.

If you need immediate assistance with this issue, please contact us using the numbers and information at http://Canon.us/ContactLI
