Is it possible to scan from a Canon Pixma MX432 to my iPad?

Is it possible to scan from a Canon Pixma MX432 to my iPad? I want to be able to scan on the Canon with a .pdf of the scanned document appearing on my iPad (wifi version( I AM ABLE to print from my iPad to the Canon using AirPrint.
I have been unable to find the applicable information on the Canon website, user's manualm etc. Would someone on the Apple support group be able to kindly help me. Thank you, Dale

Cannon has an App which supports scanning into an iPad from various Pixma printers.

I can't scan from my Canon Pixma 882 after installing Snow Leopard 10.6.3. How can I get my scanner to work?

I can't scan from my Canon Pixma 882 after installing Snow Leopard 10.6.3. I did get the printer to work after downloading the printer software from Apple. I used to have 10.4.1. How can I get my scanner to work?

Check here to see if there is an updated driver available for it:

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!

Scanning on a Canon Pixma MP810 via an Airport Express

Can I scan from a Canon Pixma MP800/MP810 that is connected to a Airport Express? Printing works fine, but when I open Canons supplied program, it won't connect to the printer for scanning.

No scanning is not possible.
Can I scan using my all-in-one when it is connected to the USB port of an Airport Express or Airport Extreme Base Station?

TS3147 After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple,"

After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple," This problem happened right after I installed Mountain Lion. I then downloaded Canon's upgraded software and drivers for the MX 870 and the problem was resolved. Now one month later, the problem has returned.

Solved problem with original Canon software. When I downloaded Canon software upgraded for OS X 10.8, I got all by Navigator Ex. Noticed that on Canon's site, the upgraded version is 3.1; my app was 2.1. Upgraded to 3.1 for Nav. Ex, and it works.
You should still use Image Capture IMHO. If it was my gear, that's what I would do. No need to worry about software upgrades.

Installed a wireless canon Pixma MX432 printer back in November for use with my Mac Book Air. All was working normally until this past week when I began getting a message, "printer not connected." What is going on? Netgear Wireless N Router seems to be ok

My new canon Pixma MX432 printer is not printing. It was printing fine until about ten days ago. I use a Netgear Wireless N router, which is also new. What do I need to do. I get a message when trying to print that says "printer not connected." In addition, my old Gateway laptop will still print fine apparently because it has a cable connection to the printer. Puzzled!

Have you tried rebooting the router? I would unplug it, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in. Be sure you know the password etc. if that doesn't work, try unplugging and rebooting the printer. Good luck!

Can't scan from wireless networked Pixma MP640

I just hooked up a new Canon MP 640 via wireless network through my Airport Extreme. Printing works fine, but when I try to scan to my Macbook the printer can't find it over the network. It will only scan to the Macbook with a direct USB connection. I can't find any documentation that suggests that scanning doesn't work over a network connection. Any help?

First of all, even though you mention network scanning, I am not sure if you have the printer using the internal wireless support or if you have it connected to the USB port of the Airport Extreme. Some users interpretation of network connections vary. So if you do have it connected to the USB port of the Extreme, then scanning is not supported. This is a limitation of Airport devices.
If however you have configured the MP640 to connect to the Extreme via wireless and you are trying to initiate the scan from the MP640 to the Mac using the Scan button, then you need to have the [Canon IJ Network Tool v2.70|http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0200080802.html] installed on the Mac.
Also, if you want MP Navigator to open when you use the MP640 Scan button, you need to install [MP Navigator Opener v3.0|http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0200087801.html] on the Mac.
Note that for the network scanner, there should be a separate MP640 entry under the heading of Scanners within the list of devices in Print & Fax. With this MP640 selected, you will have the Open Scanner button visible in the right hand pane. If you click this button, the MP640 scanner window will appear and attempt to connect to the AIO. Does this occur for you?

Scanning problems with Canon Pixma 5300 series after upgrading to newest Macbook Pro

Are there drivers available for Canon pixma 5300 series for OS X Mavericks 10.9?
Scanning with my brand new Macbook pro using OS X 10.9 just isn't working like it used to with my old white Macbook.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Do you have an MG53xx? If so, then a scanner driver for this model is available from Apple so that you can scan with Image Capture / Preview. So if you open Printers and Scanners and select the MG53xx, you should have two tabs - Print and Scan.
Canon also has a scanning application called MP Navigator available from their web site. To use this application you will also need to download and install the scanner driver for the MG53xx, which should also be available from the same Canon web site.

Scanning problems with Canon Pixma MX300

Hi!
Alright, so I can print with the canon pixma mx300, but I cannot scan. I am able to get to the scan driver (scan gear), but once it starts to scan, the program begins to become non-responsive, I can hear the printer doing something, but the program just starts to freeze. The printer is connected directly to my computer, and I have no clue what to do now.
Erm...help

There is a possibility that some other software on your Mac is interfering with the Canon software. This could be the case if you had another brand of AIO (All in One) or a standalone scanner installed previously on this Mac.
If this was the case, then open System Preferences then Accounts. Select your account and then select Login Items. This is a list of all the items set to open when you log in. Some scanner applications will be shown in this list and if they are not related to the MX300 then this could be the problem. If you see something that you know you no longer have, then you can highlight the application and remove it by pressing minus ( - ) button. If you are not sure, write down what is listed and post it back here.
Sometimes there can be other applications that can be running in the background, but will not be shown in this list. For these types of apps, you need to have your Activity Monitor open when you attempt to scan. This will show the scangear application using a lot of your CPU resources. But hopefully it will also show another application that is running and using CPU resources, which often causes the freeze you mention. If you haven't used it before then this can be a tad daunting to look at. So if you want to take a screen grab, showing the scan gear app at the top, then post it somewhere to view I can have a look at it.
My last suggestion is to try another scanning application, like Image Capture or Preview. This can help to narrow-down the possible causes of the problem. If neither of these work, then it would suggest that ScanGear has a problem and needs removing/reinstalling. Let me know how the above suggestions go and if they are no help then I will give steps to remove the scanner software.

I am trying to download pictures from my canon rebel eos to my Ipad but i get the message "this device is not supported" what can I do ?

I just bought an Apple Lighting to USB Camera Adapter. When I got home to and connected it to my Canon Rebel EOS Digital Camera. I received the error message "This device is not supported" I was wondering if there is any software or drivers I need to download?
Thanks
Don

I use Canon Cameras and have no problems downloading photos from the camera to the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter. My questions and suggestions might be basic but just to make sure:
1. This is an iPad forum area. Are you using the lightning to USB camera adapter with an iPad? Your info in your original post says iPod. I'm not sure that the adapter works with an iPod.
2. After you connect the adapter to your iPad and then use a USB cable to connect the adapter to the camera did you turn on the camera?
3. If you did turn on the camera and still did not get the import of photos to start try a reset your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. This will not cause any data loss.

Scanner problems using windows 8 and canon pixma mx432. printer is set up but wont scan

I have my printer installed on my computer already but the scanning function is not even coming up to be able to use it. I recently was given a new computer and it has windows 8 on it. it took a lot to get it to even be installed on the computer but the scanner portion won't work. When I bring it up it has the section where the scanner should be but nothing is there to push. What can I do to get this function working correctly?

All the drivers for 4350D and MF4690 and a few more models I owned in a few more offices have the scanner bug in the drivers for Windows 8. No new drivers been released to fix the problem all those scanners I owned have. Now Canon just put the Windows 8_Notice_ENG inside the driver package and includes the [Limitations During Operation] that says:
When using the scan function while the device is connected to a computer by USB, removing the USB cable and then
plugging it back in or turning the device off and then on will cause the scanning function to be unable to execute. If this
occurs, please restart the computer.
Seriously, Canon? Restart the computer everytime it doesn't work, and I have to go through the hazzle saving all the files I am working on just to restart to get the scanner to work? I have tried to mod the newer drivers for MF4770n and a few new models to make it work with those 4350D 4690 models, it will then detect the scanner without restart, but the scanner won't produce a readale image using my modified drivers. Now stick with VM Player running Windows 7 to scan the files with those old scanners. I won't buy another Canon scanners for my future needs if Canon just can't fix the Windows 8 driver problems all those scanners I owned.

Hi - new to the forum. I am unable to get the true colour printing I am used to from my Canon Pixma 9500 mk2 since moving to a mac and using Aperture. The colours are simply not representative of the on-screen image. Any ideas?

Whatever I do with installing or de-installing printer drivers, selecting or deselecting colour synch or colour management options, the colour is simply awful compared to what I have been used to fir years, using the same printer with a pc and a 10 yeart old version of paintshop Pro. What is going on!??

First guess is that you are subjecting the data to two passes of printing conversions. If you use Aperture's color management for printing, you _must_ disable the color controls in your printer dialog.
How this is done varies for each printer. (The Aperture User Manual says, in full:
To turn off color management for your printer
Refer to the owner’s manual that came with your printer.
Additionally, make sure you have the most recent printer driver for your printer and OS. Printer makers have gotten good at making these files easy to get. Most now come with installation instructions.
Lastly, the only way to ensure that you get a good screen-to-print match is to use a hardware device to calibrate your monitor. That doesn't seem to be your problem, though.

Is it at all possible to print to a Canon Pixma ip100 without a computer in the mix?

My wife needs to have techs go out into the field and print forms. She already has the ip100 printer. She would idealy like to have the techs carry an iPad to enter data into a form and then print that form. The only hurdle left in this is the printing. She does not have the iPads yet but since they're cheaper than laptops, that's what she'd like to go with.
I've tried to get an app called PrintCentral Pro to do it but that requires software on a laptop to be installed. If the techs need a laptop, there's no point in them having iPads. I've also seen where AirPrint doesn't cover the ip100 but that's the printer that she already has, so my hands are tied as far as getting another printer. I've seen old posts that say it can't be done but I'm hoping that there's been some advance since then.
Thanks.

We also have a wireless router that, if need be, I thought we could use as an access point to get the printer on an ad hoc network. But again, I run into the software on a laptop issue.
This is the router:

Can't scan from Pixma to Mac

Hi,
I have an ongoing problem with scanning from my Canon Pixma to my Mac Airbook. The printer scans, but the image is not made available on the computer - Image Capture says that 'no device is connected'.
Having done some internet research, I see that this may be a driver problem. I've followed advice and installed various drivers, bypassing Apple's gatekeeping systems to do so, but it makes no difference.
I've consulted Apple several times on this but they are unable to help. The latest advice - to uninstall the printer and re-install has had no effect, although I did notice that there was an option to select a particular driver, which I didn't do, not knowing which one to select.
Any thoughts please? It seems daft to have two of the highest-spec bits of kit available, but not be able to do something so basic.

I believe Image Capture is for cameras.
If you go to System Preferences>Printers and Scanners there should be a button for scanner.
Which printer are you using?
