Hi,
You may have to start from your computer first:
    Double click printer icon on desktop,
    Select Manage Scan to Computer
    Click Enable -
You can start this automatically with Windows BUT you will get an arror message if you turn on the computer BEFORE the printer.
Regards.

    how to scan a document and then download it onto a disc

    Hi SCOOTalong,
    The IJ Scan Utility that comes with the printer can assist you with scanning a document into your computer.  To scan using the IJ Scan Utility, please follow these steps:
    1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key.
    2. Start typing IJ SCAN UTILITY. The search window opens as you type. Once the IJ SCAN UTILITY is displayed, please select and open it.
    3. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
    4. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN or PHOTO SCAN option on the left pane of the window, depending on what you would like to scan.
    5. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
    a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
    b.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the MY DOCUMENTS folder, but if you already have the USB flash drive plugged into your computer, you can select that drive as the location to save the scanned document.
    6. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the window to save the changes. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
    7. Click the DOCUMENT or PHOTO button, depending on what you are trying to scan. Scanning starts. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed. Scanned images are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window.
    If you find that you need advanced scanning options such as adjusting resolution, brightness, contrast, saturation, color balance, etc. in addition to the options selected above, please click on the SCANGEAR button on the IJ Scan Utility Main screen, then adjust the items as necessary.
    Once the document has been scanned into your computer, you can insert the CD into your computer, then navigate to the area where you saved the scanned document and burn it to the CD.  If you did not scan the document directly to the USB flash drive, you can copy and paste the document to the USB flash drive from the save location.
    Hope this helps!

    It does have that feature. Why would you assume that it doesn't?

    Okay, no problem.
    If the top bar menu is not displayed in top left of your iTunes Library, use the CTRL+B keys to turn it on:
    On that menu, use File/Add Folder to Library and navigate to the folder you wish to add:
    If you wish to add just one song, notice the File/Add File to Library command on that menu as well.
    Alternatively, you can drag-and-drop from the file's location into your iTunes Library.
    That's all there is to it.
    By the way, it is possible to have Amazon MP3s downloaded to your computer and then automatically added to the iTunes Library by the Amazon downloader. I do it all the time.

  • HOW DO I SCAN A DOCUMENT TO MY COMPUTER USING MP210?

    HOW DO I SEND A SCAN TO MY COMPUTER?

    Actually, something was wrong with my computer that day and I couldn't find theprinter manual. But suddenly, It worked properly. When I scanned the photos, no windows were popping up to send them to a file and I didn't remember what to do or how to do it. I think I finally shut my pc down, and when I re-booted, the window to send the scan to a file popped up. So the problem resolved itself. Thanks for your input.

  • How can I print on a Document that I have Scanned and is on my computer and then print it.

    How can I print on a Document that I have Scanned and is on my computer and then print it.

    And what exactly? How did you scan? What "document"? What system? You need to be a lot more specific, especially since it is absolutely not clear what Adobe software has to do with it.

    I scanned an Item from my computer to my documents. The scan was completed.  However, when I searched in my documents, the Item was not there.
    Where can I find the item scanned?

    Most scanners default to Pictures folder or the Desktop.
    If you select All My Files and Arrange by Date Added you should be able to find the file.
    If you turn on Show Path bar and Show Status bar for your Finder Window under View in the Menu bar, when you select the file you will see the path of the file in the bottom of the Finder window.

  • When I try to scan a document on my MF8050cn, I get a "Connect Computer" error.

    When I try to scan a document on my MF8050cn, I get a "Connect Computer" error.  I am running Windows 8.  My device is directly connected to the computer.  I can print from the computer to the printer without issue.  I get this error when using the controls on the device. 
    If I try to use the MF Toolbox - Scan Function controls, I get the following error message: "This action cannot be completed because the other program is busy.  Choose 'Switch To' to activate the busy program and correct the problem."  When I click "Switch To", it brings me to the Windows 8 tiles screen but does not resolve the issue.

  • I am buying an Epson scanner. I am told it is compatible with an Apple Computer, is that correct? I have been told to get Acrobat XI Pro as the software for the scanner. Is that correct? Will this also scan handwritten documents into a Word document?

    I am buying an Epson scanner. I am told it is compatible with an Apple Computer, is that correct? I have been told to get Acrobat XI Pro as the software for the scanner. Is that correct? Will this also scan handwritten documents into a Word document?

    "I am buying an Epson scanner. I am told it is compatible with an Apple Computer, is that correct?"
    We have no idea, and it isn't really our thing.
    "I have been told to get Acrobat XI Pro as the software for the scanner. Is that correct?"
    Acrobat XI Pro is available for Mac and is an excellent tool for making PDFs. We can't say whether it will work with the scanner. It depends what drivers Epson provide.
    "Will this also scan handwritten documents into a Word document?"
    That's not what Acrobat is for. It is for making PDFs. To make handwritten documents into Word documents, you'd just scan as graphics, and insert each graphic on a new page of the Word document. They will remain pictures of text, not something you can edit or copy/paste.

    Is MP Navigator installed on the computer? If so, it will save in My Documents/My Pictures/MP Navigator. In there it will have a folder of the date it was scanned, and the image will be in there. If not, I would download MP Navigator from the canon website. www.usa.canon.com.
