Pixma MG5420 won't connect to wifi network after changing routers

Hi-

I'm now frustrated by the inabliity of my Pixma MG5420 to connect to my wifi imac network.  Previously I used a Apple Airport router, but decided to change to my cable provider's router (Spectrum).  Previously my network was not encrypted, but the Spectrum network is encrypted by default to WPS2-PSK(AES).  When I tried to connect the printer to the network it would not connect at first.  Then I tried using the advanced option to connect to the access point.  It had an option to use encryption and I chose the identical encryption option WPS2-PSK(AES).  The printer then connected to the network.  However when I go to view the printer in my Mac favorites under printers, it does not appear.  How can the printer be connected to the network yet not be visible to my computer?  I need to better understand how the printer is connected, and if there are any software tools to diagnose what the problem is.  Thank you.
