How to set up Pixma MP495 to print wirelessly without a set-up CD on a Mac Maverick OSX?

Inherited an old printer from my boss - am trying to set it up for my office. Unfortunately, the setup CD is no longer in sight. Would appreciate any help.

Here's what I've tried so far.

1)
I've downloaded ALL recommended drivers and software from (http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mp_series/pixma_mp495). Restarted my computer countless time, yet, my computer still cannot detect/recognize the printer.

 

2)
I've also followed the instruction on this site (http://forums.usa.canon.com/t5/Wireless-Networking/mp-495-how-to-connect-to-wireless-without-setup-c... - despite it being for Windows - and still to no avail.

 

Would appreciate if someone could help me out. 

Thanks in advance!
