PIXMA TS3322 Chromebook Connection problems

[Sharon52]

I have been printing from my Chromebook for years.  Now when I try to print,  I am getting a message Cannot connect to printer.  I don't know if the printer is connected to WIFI, so I don't know if  the  problem is that the WIFI is not connected to the wifi network or is the problem with connecting the printer to the Chromebook.  I don't know why this is now beginning to be a problem.

I would like to connect to the WIFI router by using the password for the router. I can'f  figure out where the problem is. The Chromebook, the printer, or the WIFI

If you can log any other device off and back on to the router, the issue is most likely not the router. 

This may help:

To connect your PIXMA TS3322 printer to a Chromebook, ensure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network, then add the printer through the Chromebook's settings. If needed, you can also connect via USB or install the appropriate printer driver from the Chrome Web Store.
