MX410 offline and won't print but WILL scan to PC wirelessly?

[pjn]

My computer says that my MX410 is offline and won't print. This does not make sense to me because the printer itself recognizes the computer over the wireless network and can scan to the PC. So there seems to be a working wireless connection, at least in one direction, from the printer to the PC. I have a different computer (Macbook, wirelessly connected also) that is able to both print and scan without a problem.

How do I get the MX410 to appear "online" and print from this PC?

The PC has Windows 7. The computer is directly connected to the router (access point) by ethernet cable and the MX410 is wirelessly connected to the network.
