Canon MX700 - wireless printing

I have a Canon MX700 printer (not wireless), and a Linksys Router – WRT54G2.  I’m trying to setup the printer on a wireless network so it can print via mobile devices (ie. MacBook, iPad and iPhone).  I’ve gotten to the point that the printer LAN has the following details:

IP address: 192.168.1.114

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Default gateway: 192.168.1.1

MAC address: 00:00:85:C6:3E:06

MAC address filtering: Off

IP address filtering: Off

The IP Configuration for the router’s Network Connection has the following setting:

Physical address: 00-16-76-C2-18-4E

DHCP enable: Yes

Autoconfiguration enable: Yes

IP Address: 192.168.1.100

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Default gateway: 192.168.1.1

DHCP Server: 192.168.1.1

DNS Servers: 192.168.1.1

I’ve setup the printer on the MacBook OS X ver. 10.5.8; the General settings for the printer are:

Name: 192.168.1.114

Location:

Queue name: _192_168_1_114

Host name: localhost

Driver version: 10.67.1.0

URL: lpd://192.168.1.114/

The most I’m getting out of the printer from the MacBook are test pages, from the printer’s utility.

 

I’m lost as far as what to do next, I’ve looked on line and nothing seems to help.  ANY SUGGESTION OR DIRECTIONS, please.

Hello buzytee.

 

Please make sure that the latest drivers and IJ Network Tool are installed from our website in order to use the printer on your local network..

 

These items can be downloaded at the following link:

Once there, choose your version of Mac OS X in the 'Select OS' menus.  Then expand the Drivers and Software listings to download and install these items.
