Canon MG6200 stopped working wirelessly (my mac is running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3) Any suggestions?

We've had to reinstall this printer before, but it's always been easy.  This time, the computer won't locate the printer and any driver I try to download (just tried the MP Navigator EX), doesn't then seem to enable us to print wirelessly.  Just get error message 'you need to install printer'.  Help!
