For Pixma MX922 "cannot connect to server" in order to register printer to Google Cloud Print

[woodardbarnes]

For my Canon Pixma MX922 I am following directions from website support  "Using Google Cloud Print"

Cannot move on to item 11 because I have no print out of the authentication URL.  "cannot connect to server"

I'm having the same problem. It's frustrating.

It is an MG5420. Today, I was finally able to register the printer again. However, the printer shows as offline, and the print jobs I sent remain queued. I've tried turning the printer off and on again a couple of times, which is how I used to solve the "offline" problem. So...progress? But it still isn't working.

I found the page that says I need to update my firmware to get my printer to connect to the cloud.  However, there is no firmware listed for download to fix the problem.  How can I get the firmware needed to fix the cloud print problem (and the firmware update problem)?

rebooting the printer allowed me to download and install a newer firmware.  Now it talks to the cloud servers.  Not clear if it will print from the cloud wirelessly, however, as I had to use the wired ethernet to set it up, but will use the printer wirelessly.
