LiDE 35 Can't scan larger than US Letter

Does anyone know how to get a CanoScan LiDE (or perhaps any scanner) to scan larger than US Letter?
I can't get a full size A4 scan in any of the built in scanning options (image capture / print & fax prefpane / preview).
The Overview prescan preview always crops the bottom couple of cm off the image, and when I try to put the actual A4 height in cm into the dimensions, I get an error sheet saying:
The value "29.7" is too big (Maximum value is 27.94).
27.94 is the US Letter height.
Canon's scanning software supports A4 alright (but has no preview), so it looks like this is some system-wide issue.

Just tried scanning with my LiDE200 and I can get an A4 scan. This is by manually dragging the preview hairlines or by entering the x-y values.
With regards to the x-y, to check this I entered a value of 220 for the width and got this message;
"The value ”220” is too big (Maximum value is 21.60693)."
Likewise I entered a value of 300 for the length and got this message'
"The value ”300” is too big (Maximum value is 29.70107)."
So for your scanner driver to limit the scanning dimensions I wonder if you have a region setting on the Mac that is causing this? I don't really want to change settings on my MBP to test this but I did just want to let you know that A4 scanning is possible.
Also, regarding MP Navigator, if you tick the box "Use the scanner driver" and then click 'Open Scanner Driver', this will open the ScanGear window allowing you to preview the document.

  • How can I scan more than one photo at a time on my 8610

    The previous HP Scanner we had (8500) would allow you to add scan windows to the scan preview so that you could scan more than one photo or image at a time from the glass.  This allowed me to scan physical photos in several at a time rather than having to load one at a time.  Is there a way to do this in this newer 8610 software?  

    Thanks!  That did work, sort of.   At 600 dpi, If I put 5 photos on the scanner bed, it sometimes senses 3 correctly and senses 2 as one photo.  Sometimes the other way around, it gets 2 right and senses 3 togehter.  I can then change the scanning area to just have one of those photos, but then I have to rescan the one(s) that are/were left out. 
    So the first problem with this solution is, to use it I'm stuck at 300 dpi resolution  or less which isn't great for my situation.  I want to be able to enlarge some of these images up for printing.
    Also, When I click on the + sign it scans the same photos again and I can then crop the ones that it continually senses as 1 photo (even when they are spread apart, but it scans all the others again to, so if it senses three photos together that shouldn't be, I have to add 2 extra pages, crop them appropriately and the delete the extra 4 scans of the photos it got right the first time.  
    VERY CUMBERSOME.  The previous program for the 8500 let you just add a scan area window so that you could scan the bits out you wanted.  Much better.   Why do they mess with what works?   Bummer.

  • Scaning - how to scan larger than default setting?

    I have Mac OSx 7 and a hp6600 cz155a printer/copier/scanner. 
    How do I make the scanner scan a larger area? It cuts off the images and I would like to set a larger area to be scanned.
    I have a 6600 hp All-in-One scanner.
    Thanks for any help.

  • I cannot add nor send file attachments larger than 100k on any of my email servers from this particular PC. Is there a fix for this?

    I cannot attach a file larger than 100k to any email account (gmail, aol, secureserver.net) while using Firefox. However, I can send files larger than 100k from those same accounts on this computer when using IE. Switched to Firefox from IE and would prefer to continue using Firefox, however this issue presents a problem for my business needs. Please advise. Thank you.

    Well seeing as I'm running Lion on 2 GB of RAM, I can't see how upgrading the RAM will make that much of a difference.    If you are seeing launch times in minutes, it probably indicates your cache got corrupted by some third party cache cleaning software.  To see if some corruption can be fixed, first backup your data:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
    Then boot in safe mode, holding the shift key.  If issues persist in safe mode, run the hardware test that came with your Mac. 
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303081
    And if that is unrevealing, and booting into safe mode doesn't solve anything, and you are backed up, try repairing the directory by:
    1. Booting into the restore partition with command-R.
    2. Selecting the installer's Utilities menu.
    3. Selecting Disk Utility
    4. Selecting First Aid
    5. Selecting the boot partition.
    6. Click on repair disk (not repair permissions)
    Do NOT proceed with any install itself.  Just quit the install program
    If the disk is not able to be repaired, purchase Alsoft Disk Warrior, and boot of that to repair the directory.
    If it is able to be repaired, and the machine is still slow, I think you may have run into some RAM that is bad, and need to replace it, not add to it.
    If Disk Warrior can't repair the hard disk, replace the hard disk itself.

  • How can I get the "Open" and "Save As" dialog boxes to open at larger than their default size?

    How can I get the "Open" and "Save As" dialog boxes to open at larger than their default size?  I would like them to open at the size they were previously resized like they used to in previous operating systems.  They currently open at a very small size and the first colum is only a few letters wide necessitating a resize practically every time one wants to use it.  Any help would be appreciated.

    It depends upon the capabilities of your printer. If you have an HP printer with a photo tray then the Photo app will print to whatever size you load in to that tray.
    There's some more information here:
    Using AirPrint to Print Various Photo Sizes
    With other printers the user is given a choice from the printer's loaded paper sizes. You can see an example of that here:

  • The amount of memory used for data is a lot larger than the saved file size why is this and can I get the memory usage down without splitting up the file?

    I end up having to take a lot of high sample rate data for relativily long periods of time. When I save the data it is usually over 100 MB. When I load the data for post-processing though the amount of memory used is excessively higher than the file size. This causes my computer to crash because 1.5 GB is not enough. Is there a way to stop this from happening withoput splitting up the file into smaller files.

    LabVIEW can efficiently handle large files, far beyond 100Mb, provided that care is taken in the coding of the loading/processing routines. Here are several suggestions:
    1) Check out the resources National Instruments has put together (NI Developer Zone > Development Library > Measurement and Automation Software > LabVIEW > Development System > Optimizing Applications > Managing Memory), specifically the article entitled "Managing Large Data Sets in LabVIEW".
    2) Load and process the data in chunks if possible.
    3) Avoid sending the data to front panel indicators, using local/global variables for data storage, or changing data types unless absolutely necessary.
    4) If using LabVIEW 7.1, use the "show buffer" tool to determine when LabVIEW is creating extra
    copies of data in memory.

    If your files are this large, ExportPDF is the wrong tool for you. You need Adobe Acrobat, which runs locally and does not need to send your files to Adobe.

    Open the file in Preview and select "Save as..." from the File menu. Select "Reduce File Size" from the Quartz Filter menu and save. The size probably won't be reduced enough, though. You may have to split the file into several parts and mail them separately. Or upload it to a web server and send the link.

    I can import a video that is 1280x720 or smaller to layers, but can't import one larger than that or Photoshop freezes up. and then has to be force quit.  when i reopen it after force quiting, it immediately crashes and then when i reopen it and try to import any video in any way it gives me the error message "Could not complete the Video Frames to Layers command because the DynamicLink Media Server is not available."

    The sign on screen (where the current time and the slide to unlock) and if I can get it to open, the next screen that show all the apps.  Have been unable to get any further that that second screen.  The screen contents appear to be about twice the size they should be.  I have been able to "reset" the phone by turning it off, but the problem happening several times a day and now occasioanally the reset does not work.  This just started happening about 3 days ago and is increasing in frequency.  I have had this phone about 14 months.

  • User Interface is larger than it should be, how can we fix this?

    Our marketing director is experiencing an issues with her UI for Acrobat.  Her view of the overall UI is twice as large as it should be.  We uninstalled and checked her preferences but nothing has changed, everything up in the tool bar and stickies are larger than it should be, does anyone have any suggestions or fix's for this matter?
    Thanks,
    Billy

    Hi Billy,
    I suspect the text size in the system's control panel is 150%?
    She can simply go to Acrobat preferences -> General -> Then change the "Scale for screen resolution" to 100%. This will force the UI to run at 100% like it did before.
    Please let me know if this works.
    Thanks,
    Luc
