Canon Pixma G3501 at *Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: help needed to get the scanner running.

> I think you have the device networked. Please would you confirm this.

Device "networked": yes and no.

YES, because the device DOES get wireless signals in the same WIFI 
environment as my laptop and mobile. It is designed to function also 
wirelessly.

NO, because so far I did not manage to find out how to get get wireless 
signals to it from a Linux Ubuntu environment. So far, I have been using 
a usb cable to get pages printed. All my unfruitful scan attempts so far 
took place via the same USB cable.

Good point. May be it's because I have been using so far the drivers 
that came up when connecting the device to *Ubuntu 18.04.
