Canon MP 610 : no scanning with Leopoard

As soon as Leopard is installed Canon MP610 no longer scans and YES! there will be updates but it is still up to the Apple user to check every day on the Canon websites (US and Canada) to see if updates are available.
It would be too much for Canon to send an email to all registered Canon owners to inform them that the drivers (and all updates) are available with a link to go to their website for immediate downloads.
Excellent printer, such poor customer service....
"Thank you for your E-mail inquiry regarding the Canon PIXMA MP610.
Mac OS X version 10.5 drivers are currently not available for this product. If drivers are made available, they will be posted on our website under the downloads section. We suggest visiting our website periodically to see if Mac OS X version 10.5 have been released for your model."
How nice.....
Alain

It's so easy to point the finger at the vendor now but did you check with Canon first before loading Leopard to ensure that your AIO was going to work? My bet is that you didn't as most people don't. You all rush in and load the "latest and greatest' and then blame everyone else when things go wrong. This same problem occurred when Tiger was released and it will happen again when all the 10.5 updates get rolled out and when 10.6 becomes the best OS ever.
As consumers we need to be more careful. Always check before installing something new and ensure you have backups when things do go wrong.
With regards to your MP610, the current version of ScanGear (v13.4.0) does work with Leopard however this is an issue with multiple page scanning. The new version, 13.9.0, is due for release at the end of November.

  • TS3147 Canon printer will not scan with OS X 10.8

    I have a Canon MX870 printer. When I upgraded to OS X ver 10.8, my scanner wouldn't work.   When I opened Canon's MP Navigator 2.2, a window opens & says "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly".   I downloaded the driver for 10.8 from Canon.  So I now have MP Navigator EX 3.1 instead of 2.2.  When I open MP Navigator EX 3.1, a window opens & says "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly".  Please help!

    Check the Canon site for v10.8 Mountain Lion supported drivers (software).

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Crashes When Scanning with Canon DR-4010C Native Interface

    When doing a custom scan in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.2, I need to be able to show the Canon DR-4010C native interface so that it will auto-crop when I am scanning small documents such as receipts, etc.  I have another model scanner that does it automatically (a Canon Dr-2510C) but I need that same functionality when I scan with the 4010.  I can see the setting when I configure Adobe to use the scanner's native interface however when I choose "auto detection" on the size (in the scanner's interface) and press scan, Adobe immediately crashes.  Please help!

    Also, your log says: Acrobat.exe, version: 9.0.0.332
    Looks like you have not updated Acrobat after install. The current version is 9.4.6. Also try updating Acrobat, Help->Check for updates

  • 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.

  • Impossible to scan with à MP610 canon and a Airport express

    I print with à canon MP610 on a Airport express, but it is impossible to scan withit.
    help me .....

    Sorry, but Canon and other manufacturers have not provided full featured drivers to allow advanced functions when their devices are connected to the USB port on the AirPorts......which is how I assume that you are connecting.
    If you need advanced features like scan, copy, fax, maintenance etc., you will need to connect the All-in-One directly to your computer.
    You might want to contact Canon Support directly to ask them if they plan to offer full featured drivers in the future.

  • Scan with canon MP520?

    Bought a new MacBook 2.2GHz and a Canon multifunction printer for a rebate deal. I love both but am having trouble getting anything to scan properly. I have it hooked up to a new airport extreme 802.11n base station. It prints and copies perfectly, just won't scan. Has anybody been able to scan with this or any Canon multifunction?

    There's is no such thing as networked scanning in the computer world (unforunately). You must connect your Canon multifunction printer to your Mac and do it from there.

  • Microsoft Office. Epson Scan, Canon software won't work with Lion OS

    Microsoft Office. Epson Scan, Canon software won't work with Lion OS

    Microsoft office 2008 and later work fine on Lion. Office 2004 is a PowerPC application. PPC apps are no longer supported and Lion does not include Rosetta, which was required to run them on OS X. I imagine the Epson / Canon software you are trying to use is the same. Check with them to see if updates are available.

  • I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 on Windows XP, SP3

    I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 All-in-One.
    I have an (obsolete) Windows XP, SP3 computer.  Obviously, no updates from Microsoft
    have occurred that might have impacted my Canon Pixma MX479.
    When I attempt to send 1 or more pages from a PDF file to the printer, I don't even get the
    Canon PIXMA popup that would allow me to cancel the print job.
    Yet the Print Queue icon appears in the lower right corner of my monitor.
    If I view the Print Queue, the print queue shows "spooling" and does nothing more.
    If I attempt to CANCEL the print job in the Print Queue, it simply changes to "deleting -
    spooling".
    I cannot cancel the print job that shows NOT RESPONDING via Task Manager, either.
    In fact, the only way the Print Queue icon disappears is if I totally reboot my computer!
    "Luckily", I can still print e-mails, Word documents, and even my downloaded PDF of my
    bank statement.
    So, I was thinking that it was *only* PIXMA'S OWN SCANNED PDFS that could not be
    printed ON THE SAME PIXMA 479.
    However, I have since realized that I also cannot print USPS Signature Proof of Delivery
    PDFs that I received from USPS via e-mail.
    So why can I print *some* PDF files, but not *all* PDF files, like I previously could do?
    THESE SCANS ARE OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS, SO I WILL LIKELY HAVE TO E-MAIL
    THE REQUISITE, PREVIOUSLY SCANNED PDFS TO FEDEX TO PAY FOR *THEM*
    TO PRINT THEM.
    NOTE: I *have* tried turning the PIXMA off, unplugging it, rebooting the computer, plugging
    the PIXM in and restarting the PIXMA - still no ability to print PIXMA-scanned PDFs.
    And, I find it very strange that e-mails, Word documents, and some other PDFs print with
    no problem "around" "NOT RESPONDING" PIXMA print jobs.
    I have owned Canon printers for years, including the MX420, and the MX340.

    There may be some security issues related to the USPS PDFs.

    I can't help with the scan/print problem. You seem to have done everything I would try.
    I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

  • Slooow scanning with CanoScan Lide 35

    I've recently noticed a considerable speed drop when scanning with my CanoScan Lide 35. It's supposed to be USB 2.0 and when using system profiler it gives the speed at 480 Mbs, but it seems more like USB 1.1. when I'm scanning. It used to be much faster and the problem really started a short while back. Could it be caused by the Mac OS X 10.4.7 upgrade? I'm using Photoshop (9.0.1.) and CanoScan Toolbox when scanning. The scanner behaves the same whatever port I use. I've updated to the latest drivers. Anyone got a clue?
    PowerMac G5 1.8 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I would prefer to see a backup routine, followed by erase and restore, then reapply the 10.4.7 update AND you may want to reinstall Canon drivers. You could just clone to another drive and boot from that. SuperDuper can be used in demo mode for a simple clone process.
    MacFixit had a lengthy, in-depth series of 4? articles on preferences and plists and checking for corrupt prefs (I tend to rely on Applejack along with Preferential Treatment - there are also some other tools mentioned in the tutorial).
    I have an MDD so I have added and tried a couple different USB2 controllers, and someone else mentioned that while the latest Sonnet Allegro USB2 is working fine for me (no issues, no problem with deep sleep etc) they were having a problem.
    My own first recommendation with troubleshooting hardware is to always start up in Open Firmware and use the reset-nvram[/ib] command.

  • Canon MP620 Printer drivers outdated with installation of OS X Snow Leopard

    I have a 2009 iMac running OS X 10.6.4. I uploaded 10.6.4 in Feb, and I didn't realize at the time that I could print but not scan with my Canon mp620 (Printer/scanner.) When I used the Canon app "Solution Menu" to scan, I got an error message saying that there were no drivers for my printer/scanner. Following advice I found on the topic, I guessed that the original driver software was the problem, having come with the printer before OS 10.6. I followed PAHU's instructions:
    1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
    2. Move your mouse over the Printers list
    3. Hold down the Control button and click the mouse (or right click if supported).
    4. Click "Reset printing system ..."
    5. Restart your Mac
    This didn't solve the problem. Now I could neither print nor scan.
    Then I went to Canon's online site (following DNC70's solution), but since I was working after hours, I couldn't very well contact customer support. Instead, I downloaded every MP620 driver listed on Canon's site that said compatible with OS 10.6. I now have about eight downloads. With that, I now find that I can scan and not print. I'm not sure what I've done.
    Any advice? How do I straighten this out?
    -Michael

    Thanks Donald, that was it!
    I knew it'd be something easy.. Now the thing I'd like to know is, how do I get rid of software that is useless to me? I'd really like not to have excess software installed, but I'm not confident that I can just go in and start trashing anything that looks like junk. (If you do that on a Windows computer, you set in motion a diabolical chain reaction that brings about the apocalypse.) I'm a pretty new Mac user. Is there an app that'll do this task?
    Thanks again!

    I have had this printer for many years and it was fully operational only for the first two years of its link to my computer.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software many times with no success.  The Printer/Scan doctor does not solve the problem  and gives an error HP Twain Scan.  The HP Scan Flow Manager also says that software components are missing The printer works fine but the scanner in the solution center always responds with a error code saying installation is incomplete, "reinstall HP Photosmart software that came with the device and try scanning again" .  The extended error information is  4,[2,0,80040154), (0,0,0),(3,56,0)] Another computer, my wife's laptop, running Windows 8 was operational until the end of May 2015, and she is also getting this error code with her computer.  This has got to be the most annoying all-in-one I have ever used.  I have a Canon all in one at work that I have used with the laptop and the all operating features are mindless...it just works.  HP software must have compatibility issues either related to operating systems updates or security software.  My computer uses AVG, the laptop uses McAffee and beither scanner operates with this printer. I need to get this scanner operational!

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that you cannot scan with your HP Officejet 6500 wireless printer on Windows 7 and 8.

  • How to scan with Preview...

    Hey everyone!
    I'm wondering how I can scan with Preview... Is it under file>Import Image??? oh, or is my problem because my printer is plugged into my AirPort Extreme?
    my printer is a Canon MP160...
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi
    You won't be able to use a scanner (or the scanner part of a multifunction printer) that's connected to an Airport base station. You'll have to connect it directly to your Mac with USB to scan.
    Normally, when you install a scanner, it comes with scanning software, which you would use to initiate the scan; alternatively, there may be a "scan button" on the unit itself, which will launch the software and perform the scan. Make sure you check for updated software on the Canon site (check especially for 10.5 compatibility), as bundled CDs often contain outdated drivers.
