I am trying to set up my new Canon MG5320 printer to my wireless network. However, there is no button on the Airport Extreme to push when I get to that step in the set-up directions. I am using OSX.8.2. Suggestions please!

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1)

If the display shows the "Press and hold the WPS button..." message on the MG display, press the red Stop button on the MG and then select Standard Setup. The MG will search for networks and should display your Airport Extreme's network name. Select this and then enter the password to connect to this network.
