"Searching for the printer on the network."

I have my new Canon Pixma MG7520 printer connected to my network (WLAN w password) and have my iMac on my network and confirmed they are both on the same network, yet when I run the printer setup, all I get is the message "Searching for the printer on the network" - endlessly. It never finds it. Doesn't matter if the printer is on... I've restarted setup 4 times... and gone on and off Wifi... and re-logged-in to the Wifi on my printer. Nothin. Would love some help getting this thing up and running.

As a follow-up to my own post: I had accidentally transcribed the 7520 to 5720 and thus was trying to install the wrong driver. So... wow... I guess if this is happening to you, better at least check that you didn't flip a couple numbers on the driver you downloaded. Once I had the right driver downloaded, it found it just fine.
