PIXMA MG3500 Installed on Win10, Scanner not recognized via wireless.

I have a PIXMA MG3500 printer/scanner. I installed all the updated software and drivers on my Windows 10 desktop. I can print via wireless but the scanner is not recognized by Windows Fax and Scan unless I connect the device via USB. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times and still cannot get the scanner to work via wireless.  Any advice?

Patrick,

 

Thanks for your advice.  As it turns out this was an operator error.  I found my own mistake and corrected the issue.  Thanks again.
