CAX80 - Printer not showing in list of attached devices
Basically as the title says.
I have a CAX80 and the printer is a Canon Color Image CLASS MF644Cdw
My printer doesn't show in Attached Devices even though I know it is connected. I can print, ping it, and log into the printer's admin console using the IP.
I want to create a static IP entry in my CAX80 but I cannot since the printer isn't showing up in the attached devices list.
Anyone know whats going on?

"cannot" because you don't know the printer's MAC address, or some
other reason?
> Anyone know whats going on?
Buggy router firmware?
I'd try restarting the printer, and/or restarting the CAX80, to see
if the printer will appear in the Attached Devices report. If that
fails, then I'd see if I could get the printer's MAC address in some
other way.

I know nothing about your printer, but I'd guess that someplace in
its "admin console" you might be able to find its wireless-network MAC
address.
