Can No Longer Scan With Canon MG5220 But Printing Works Fine

Hello,
I have not had luck with Canon so hoping my Apple community can come through for me Here is my problem. I have a Canon MG5220 "all-in-one" that I am able to print to just fine. I was able to scan a year ago but something has changed and I am no longer able to scan. I have all the Canon software and the error I get is as follows when using MP Navigator 4.0 EX:
"Error 2.10 - Cannot communicate with scanner. Cable may be disconnected or scanner is turned off. Check status."
I have deleted and re-added my printer several times but that has not done anything. I believe there was a time in the past when it was scanning properly that I had a separate printer icon under "Printers" on left of "Print and Scan" sscreen for the scanner but not sure (can someone confirm?). Regardless, I only have one now.
My printer is connected as follows: MG5220 is wireless to my FiOS Actiontec router and then hardwired Ethernet to iMac. I have turned Wi-Fi status on and off o Mac and that has not made a difference.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
epie

Open Finder and navigate to Applications > Canon Utilities > IJ Network Scanner Selector EX and open the Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX utility. This utility will search your local network for the MG5220 and if found, should show something like below.
If the MG5220 is found, ensure that it is selected - as opposed to "Do Not Use" - and then press the OK button.
Now open MP Navigator and select the Preferences (as shown below)
From the Preferences window, with the General tab selected, ensure you have the MP5200 Series Network set as shown below (which is for my wireless MG6250).
If it is set, press the OK button to close the Preferences window and then see if you can scan.

HP8500A all-in-one can no longer scan thru wireless network but prints fine.

HP8500A all-in-one can no longer scan thru wireless network but prints fine. Have used this device several times over past 2 years on different wireless networks (at home) but usually at some point I lose wireless scan function but maintain wireless Printing. I used to be able to reload the software and resolve the issue but now in this "new network" cannot get wireless scanning to work. Setup software; original software (CD) and current download as well as "Print/Scan Dr" hangs-up at "network check" for hours. Compaq laptop, Dell Laptop, Cell phones and Roku work fine thru network. Scanner works fine with USB to Laptops.

Which model Epsons are they?
I'm assuming you're using Yosemite (OS X 10.10), and that the problem developed when you upgraded from a previous OS.
(Your profile says 10.6.7 BTW).
Maybe the scanning function is not compatible with Yosemite.
You could try a few things:
reset your wifi system:
power down everything: modem, router, computer, printer/scanners.
wait a minute.
power them all up again, in that order: modem, router, computer, printers. Let each power up completely before going on to the next.
try a factor reset on your printer/scanner (if there is such a function). You'll have to check your manual for how. If you do that you'll have to enter the wifi password in your printer/scanner, assuming you have security on your network.
uninstall any printer manufacturer "utilities" that are on your Mac, and try Image Capture again.
If it is a compatible software issue, you could try VueScan, but I've never needed to use it.

Can no longer scan with the HP Envy 4500

I can no longer scan documents with the HP Envy 4500. When I try to scan it times out and I receive the following error message:
"Scanner communiocation cannot be established. Ensure your product is powered on, check the connection, and ensure your network is functioning properly. If these conditions are correct, restart the product and try scanning again." I use a wireles connection to the HP Envy 4500 and it is working fine as I can print documents with no issues. I ran the HP Print and Scan Doctor and it flagged the issue as a potential problem with the device driver. I uninstalled the HP software and downloaded the latest version from the HP site, installed it, and tha did not correct the problem. At this point, I am not sure what else to try and correct the problem. Any suggestion would be much appreciated.

Thanks for getting back to me
If the printer will not make copies, the unit may have a "Scanner Failure", unfortunately, and resetting the router, or computer troubleshooting would not make a difference.
You can try a power reset on the printer, to see if that will help:
Power reset the printer:
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
You can also try using a different wall outlet to see if this makes a difference.
If the problem continues, contact HP's Technical Support directly to discuss your printer replacement options, as you would require a new printer if there is a Scanner Failure.

My I cloud calendar in Outlook on my PC will no longer sync with the cloud. It worked fine until yesterday. Contacts and email still sync just fine. Any ideas?

And I'm not referring to the default Outlook calendar, I'm referring to the I Cloud calendar in MS Outlook which was installed when I first connected Outlook to the Cloud. And it's worked fine all this time, suddenly it won't add items that I've added on my IOS devices or Mac and it won't upload items to the Cloud that I enter in Outlook on the PC. It sure would be nice if Microsoft or Apple or both would get this working properly. I see how many others have problems too, but not quite the same as mine.
Thanks for the help in advance.

In addtition, I use 2 other PC's with Outlook and they are configured to connect to the Cloud also, yet on both the I cloud calendars in Outlook only contain about half of my calendar entries. ???
Help again, please.

TS3938 Can no longer scan with my MP800 Canon printer

I've seen lots of posts on this, and it is extremely frustrating that I'm starting to think it's just assumed that the owners of MP800 Canon printer/scanners will just toss out a perfectly good, little-used piece of hardware and buy something new. I've tried going to the HP site, loading the new drivers, etc. I've also tried changing from MP Navigator to Image Capture, but nothing happens when I open the Scanner, except for an empty screen that turns completely white when I click on Show Details.
I am REALLY disappointed in Apple OS update. In the PC world (which I bought a mac to get away from) I would just uninstall the entire printer, then re-install it and count on the correct drivers etc. to be loaded. I've tried to find a way to do this on the forums, but no luck. Is there any way to un-install the printer/scanner completely? And then re-install it to pick up the new drivers/software or whatever, that would work?

Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers should resolve this issue. Please perform the following to remove the currently installed drivers: (If any items are not listed, move on to the next step.)
1. Open Finder
2. Open the 'Library' folder.
3. Open the 'Printers' folder.
4. Open the 'Canon' folder.
5. Send the 'BJ Printer' folder to the trash.
6. Return to the 'Library' folder.
7. Open the 'Receipts' folder.
8. Locate any items related to your printer and send them to the trash.
Leave the 'Canon Printer Drivers.pkg' file in the folder if it happens to be listed.
9. Return to the 'Library' folder.
10. Open 'Image Capture'.
11. Open the 'Twain Data Sources' folder.
12. Send any Canon files related to your printer to the trash.
13. Open the Applications folder.
14. Open the Canon Utilities folder.
15. Send the MP Navigator to the trash.
16. Restart your computer.
To get your MP800 Canon printer operating , please follow these steps:
Download the following drivers:
mcpd-mac-mp800-10_51_2-ea11.dmg
msd_-mac-mp800-12_13_3-ej7.dmg
mpnosx207ej7.dmg
Once the downloads are completed, open each installer package to begin setup.
Once this process is completed, try scanning and printing with your MP800 Canon printer.

Since downloading windows 10, I can no longer scan to my computer but can print to the same machine

I recently instaalled windows 10. I have an epson all in one printer/scanner. I can print to the machine but can not scan to my computer now. I deleted the machine and reloaded the drivers but it still does not work. Help pls

Hey ,
Welcome to the HP forums. You may want to reach out to Epson for issues using their products.

Can't connect to internet via laptop, but desktop works fine via Airport

I am having a very strange problem. I have an iMac and Macbook Air. Both on an Airport Express network, connected to Verizon DSL. My iMac never has a problem connecting to the internet. However, my Macbook Air almost never can connect. I am able to get onto my network with both computers without a problem. The only thing is my laptop doesn't seem to see an internet connection. Sometime it works, but mostly not. One thing to note is that Verizon had me recently switch my modem to Bridge Mode so that I could properly use the Back to My Mac service. I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

Is the Airport Express the router, or is it also in Bridge Mode?
Someone has to be the router and do the necessary Version DSL login (assuming you are on one of the Verizon DSL lines that requires PPPoE logins).
If your iMac is doing the PPPoE login, then it is the only system that will be allowed to use the DSL connection (1 PPPoE login per DSL line). Again this is assuming your Verizon DSL line requires a PPPoE login.
If your Airport Express is in Router mode and is doing any necessary logins to Verzion, then ignore what I have just said.
The next question is what versions of Mac OS X are on each system? Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4), Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5)?
Do you know if you are getting an IP address assigned to the MacBook Air? Assuming the Airport Express is the router assigning DHCP IP addresses, I would expect it to have a 10.0.1.* address.
If the MacBook Air has a good IP address, does it have good DNS servers? You could experiment by assigning your own DNS servers, such as 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 from OpenDNS.org. You would set these in System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> DNS (assuming Leopard on the MacBook Air).

Does your mic work in System Preferences?
System Preferences > Sound > Input
There is an Input Level meter that should light up when you talk. Just to make sure your mic and Mac are working.
Which mic are you using? Are you using the built in mic on an Apple Display? I have Apple's LED display and every time I use Facetime, as in place or take a call, the mic input volume gets reset to a level so low, people can't hear me. I have to manually raise the mic volume back to where I had set it. When I end the call, Facetime resets the volume back to where I set it. If I don't reset the mic volume level on each and every call, people can't hear me.
I called Apple on this. They downloaded a log file tool to my Mac and took some logs. Then they called me back and said this works as designed. Incredible.
So, if you are using Apple's LED display, this may be your problem. Note that the mic volume level gets set low and reset back only during a call. If you check it before a call and then after a call, it looks fine as if nothing changed. Open up the Sound prefernces and watch it get reset in real time.

After upgrading to OS 10.8.1 I can no longer scan from my Canon MP240 printer when it is connected to Airport Express.

I can no longer scan from printer (Canon Pixma MP240) when it is connected to Airport Express, although printing is no affected. However, when connected directly to MBP scanning works fine. I have tried all the standard remedies; reinstalling drivers, resetting printer system, selecting sharing options, but no luck. Previous to Mountain Lion this function worked fine. Any ideas how to regain this capability?
Thanks,
J.

I'm almost completely certain that the scanning feature worked before the update. Having said that though, I don't scan a great deal and it may be the case that when I have done, the printer was directly connected to the MBP. However, since I have a laptop it's far more logical that I would have had the printer connected to Airport Express for reasons of portability so I can't really see that I would have had the printer connected directly to the laptop. Besides this, I have no memory of having this problem previously. Therefore, I don't think my memory is to blame although of course, if it were I'd have no way of knowing!

I have a Lexmark Prevail Pro 705 printer connected to my network wirelessly. I can no longer scan from it using Image Capture. I can print to it. I can scan from it using a Windows machine. Most updated firmware. Driver v 11.0 Any ideas?

I have a Lexmark Prevail Pro 705. Latest (as of july 30, 2012) firmware. Mac driver v 11.0
I can no longer communicate wirelessly with the scan feature of the printer. I can print no problem using a wireless connection. Using a window's machine I can scan wirelessly from the printer. It seems that my iMac (OSX 10.8, 3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 24inch early 2009) is not connecting to it. I can put a USB cord into the computer and scan.
Any ideas? This came up starting 2 weeks ago. I had hoped the operating system upgrade would solve it. It has not. I see nothing on the Lexmark boards about this. Since the printer works fine in both print an scan mode using a windows machine and can print fine from a Mac but not scan I don't have any ideas but I suspect it is the Mac.

Using Image Capture to scan with Canon Pixma MX700

I previously had trouble connecting my Canon Pixma MX700 to my MBP, but soon figured out that I needed a new high speed USB 2.0 cable, versus the old one I was trying to use it with. Doh!
So now it prints without any trouble at all, and I know that all its features - printing, scanning, fax, copier, are supposed to be compatible with Leopard.
However, I'm still having issues scanning. I Googled and found a comment somewhere that with this specific model, one has to use Image Capture for the scanning portion, instead of the Canon software.
Great, so that explained the problem I was having trying to figure out how to GET it to communicate at all with the MBP (downloaded the latest scanner driver from Canon with no result).
But it still will not scan with Image Capture. Communication is fine- the image is detected and I can see it perfectly in the Image Capture window, am able to change options, etc. Once I drag and select the image I want to scan and click the scan button, nothing happens. Or more specifically, the button will be click-able and for about two seconds it appears to be working (with the scan button substituted by a cancel button), but then the scan button will pop back up and nothing appears in the folder I specified the image to be saved to.
Now I'm completely stumped. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!!!

With my MacBook running Leopard, I had been able to successfully scan multiple images by pressing the MX7000 scan button and capturing the images with MP Navigator. The MX700 is networked over WiFi. Early on, I learned that it seemed to be more reliable to drive this process using the scan button, rather than trying to initiate the scan from the MP Navigator UI.
However, recently things stopped working, and after the first image was scanned, subsequent scans would fail, with MP Navigator complaining about not being able to connect to the scanner. This sounds similar to the problem described in the original posting.
I went to the Canon USA support site and downloaded /installed the latest versions of the MX700 scan driver (13.9.0) and MP Navigator (1.0.4), both available under the "Drivers and Downloads" section for the MX700 support page (be sure to select "Mac OS X" from the pull-down menu).
http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=SupportDeta ilTabAct&fcategoryid=238&modelid=15651#DownloadDetailAct
The new updates seem to have solved the problem, and I can now scan multiple images one after the other. Again, I always initiate the scan from the button on the MX700, and always capture using MP Navigator, which has the really nice feature for creating and editing multi-page PDFs.

If you are using the Preview application and it is not letting you scan then have a look at this post.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19168365#19168365
You could also try using the Image Capture application to scan.
If you are using MP Navigator then you may need to update it to a later version.

I can no longer scan using HP d110 after Mavericks

I have tried so many work-arounds to fix this issue! I've read countless threads, deleted and re-installed drivers (although according to mac and hp, this wasn't necessary), I've tried scanning using the Print/Scan utility, Image Capture, Preview and Webscan and NOTHING works. The scan begins (so I know that the printer and communicating) but then I get an error message that says "An error occurred while communicating with the scanner."
My printer works fine. But scan - which worked just fine before installing Mavericks - no longer works. Help!

Hi urbanfitchick,
I understand that you are getting a scan error. I will do my best to help you resolve this issue in Mavericks. I suggest trying to do a copy from the printer, this is to establish that the scan function is working properly on the printer. If you cannot do a copy then there is a problem with the scanner hardware and we will have to address that issue first. If there is no problems doing the copy then I recommend that you power cycle the network.
How to power cycle network
Follow these steps to reset your HP printer, your wireless router, and your computer.

4.Turn off the computer.
5.Wait 30 seconds.
6.Reconnect the power cord to the wireless router.
7.Wait 30 seconds, or until the router is fully on and ready.
8.Turn the computer back on.
9.Wait for the computer to reload.
10.Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the HP printer.
11.Turn the printer back on.
