TS8220 will not print or scan to the direct connect connection

I have a TS8220 that will print and scan to my internet network connection but will do neither when I connect to the printers direct connect. 

 

I contacted Cannon support and was told that because my phone would scan and print to the printer the problem was with my computer . . . end of support!

 

I determined (somehow) the port number of the printer and created a printer with that port number and I can print to the direct connecton but not scan from it. 

 

This problem exist with the norton anti virus turned off so that cannot be the problem. 

 

I would appreciate any help with this problem since cannon support apparently will not help here.
