PIXMA 6020 Scan Function: Computer not connected error

BWSmith
Apprentice

I bought a PIXMA 6020 printer/scanner.  I hooked it up to wi fi and the print function works.  When I try to scan a document it says the computer is not connected and defaults to Local (USB).  The computer is connected or the printer wouldn't work.   There isn't even a standard USB port, it looks like I need  special cable.

How do I get the scanner to work?

I am running Windows 11.  I'm connected wireless.  The router is 3' away from the computer and printer.

I am connecting 2 computers to the printer wirelessly.  Both work well in the print mode.
