Scanner not detected - Canon Imageclass MF8350 Cdn

Hi,
Can anyone help me? I have Snow Leopard Mac OS 10.6.8, and I am trying to install my multifunction Canon printer. It detects and prints fine, but it won't detect my scanner or fax. I have no hard line for the fax - I use CableVision's wireless router for phone and internet. Is there a way for me to use either function (scanner or fax) with my Mac?
I have an older Canon stand-alone scanner, Canoscan N1240U, and it won't detect that either...
Thanks.

Thanks. This is what the CableVision guy said to me when I asked about connecting to the modem. I was trying to connect wirelessly to the modem; I can't do that, according to him. I still need a RJ11 phone line, with the analog to digital converter to connect to the modem. Only then can I use the fax.
That is correct. The fax is designed for analog connections so there would be need to be a physical connection from the RJ11 connector on the fax to the public phone network or to the A/D converter to use your digital line.
I have "Bluetooth DUN" as my current default fax machine. How do I use it? Can it be used instead of the fax part of the Canon, and then I could probably scan a PDF into my MAC and let Bluetooth DUN fax it out?
The Bluetooth DUN (short for dial up networking) is a way in which you can use your mobile phone to send faxes from your Mac. Not really ideal if you want to send faxes often.
With your setup a better option would be to use a Fax service provider. You basically email the documents you need to be faxed to the Fax company along with the destination fax numbers.

I just posted a question dealing with PS CS not seeing the scanner. Here's what I posted:
Unable to see scanner using PhotoShop CS for Import
Nov 30, 2013 10:36 PMTags (edit): #mac_os_10.6.8 # #scanner_problem #drivers?
Epson Perfection 48970 Scanner worked perfectly with iMac using MAC OS 10.6.8 and Photoshop CS. But that iMac was traded in for a new iMac, and now using MAC OS 10.8.5. PS CS is now inoperative for the upgraded operating system. Now working with Macbook Pro, MAC OS 10.6.8, and scanner works perfectly with the laptop, but NOT with Photoshop CS. The Epson doesn't show in the import mode, but the HP Officejet Pro 8500 does, which is a poor scanner at best. I have looked for the answer to this problem, but unable to solve the problem. I don't want to buy an upgrade version of Photoshop CS; I just want to covert some 35mm slides to paper photos, etc.

Scanner not detected in PSE 12 organizer

I used PSE11 before and i use a scanner (canon 4200F) to import some old pictures and other documents. Now i have installed PSE12, but i was surprised that my scanner is not detected, so i cannot import anymore with my scanner. How can i fix this problem?

Microsoft Office does not support import by scanner or TWAIN devices
Wow, that really surprised me when you said that, because it always used to. So I had a look at my Word 2010 (where I have the free 'Classic Menu' add-in installed). Under Classic Menu it is still there under Menus> Insert> Illustrations> From Scanner or Camera. But nowhere could I see it under the standard Word Menu's or Ribbon bar.
It is still in there though. I found it in the ribbon customization options choosing commands from 'All Tabs'. Accessible then from Menus> Toolbars> Insert> From Scanner or Camera. Phew!!!
Anyway, glad to hear XNView worked for you, but still surprised that PSE12 doesn't see the scanner as either WIA or TWAIN (as you said you had followed the linked instructions in 99jon reply #1). I can only assume that Adobe changed the way they identify scanners for v12.

Neale

Mac os canon scanner not detected in Acrobat

MACBOOK PRO retina mid 2014 running OS10.10.2 Yosemite
ACROBAT Xi PRO
CANON MG5200 printer/scanner
When I connected the Canon printer scanner to my new macbook pro Acrobat does not show the printer scanner in the import from scanner menu option.
I had this problem previously with Acrobat's really irritating messing around with scanners but cannot remember how I solved it.
Does anybody have some sensible advice please?
PS ADOBE, why on earth don't you sort this out, your users have FREQUENT need for quick and easy scanning.

Hey Paul,
Firstly, I would recommend you to please check for Acrobat updates to run the latest patch i.e. 11.0.10
An out-of-date version of scanner might result in scanning issues. So, please reinstall the latest scanner driver for your particular scanner model from the manufacturer's website and then try again.
If it still does not work, then please try logging in to new administrator account, open Acrobat and check.
For instructions, refer: Install or run Adobe applications in new user account | Mac OS X
Let me know if this helps.

TS3147 installed Canon MF4570dw multifunction printer, it prints and copies but scanner not detected. How do you install scanning function?

Downloaded drivers installed MF4500w series. But software and OS does not setect scan function

First of all you need to set the MF scan components online. Press the Scan button and then select Remote.
Then on the Mac, open the MF Toolbox software, which will have been installed when you downloaded and installed the ScanGear v1.51 software, and select one of the buttons like Save. From the next window that appears, change the Original Placement menu to ADF or Platen - depending on where you have loaded the paper - and then press the Scan button. This action should scan the document to your Mac.

Plustek OpticSlim 2600 scanner not detected by scanimage

Was anyone able to make this scanner work?
I have installed sane-gt68xx-backend (which technically doesn't say it supports the 2600 model - only 2400) and I get the following output from sane-find scanner:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x07b3, product=0x0467, chip=GT-6816?) at libusb:006:002
Then, however, when I run scanimage -L there are no devices detected (tried both as user and as root).
If any one of you managed to make this thing running in Arch, then please, share your expertise. :-)

I ran into something like this getting my neighbor's scanner working on his Linux box. But that was a couple of years ago... and my memory sucks... so don't rely on any of the following...
Since the sane-gt68xx-backend package hasn't been updated since 2007, his scanner also wouldn't work right away.
In my case I had to use the Vendor-ID and Product-ID to get the real manufacturer and model of the scanner. Even though the scanner had it's own name/model, I found out the "guts" of the scanner was actually made by Plustek (I think). But that's not the problem in your case.
But... I did need to add the Vendor ID (yours is 0x07b3) and Product ID (yours is 0x0467) to one of the Sane configuration files (was it /etc/sand.d/gt68xx.conf ???).
Then, one of the logs (syslog???) started complaining about not being able to find the scanner firmware. This is where it got fun
In an attempt to refresh my very poor memory, I just tried the following steps using your scanner info...
I went to http://plustek.com/ and downloaded the Windows device driver for the Plustek OpticSlim 2600, and then unzipped it in an empty "junk" directory.
Then I installed the "unshield" package on my Arch Linux box. Next, I used unshield's "-d" parameters and "x" command to extract all the files inside the data1.cab file to another empty directory. I think you'll find scanner's firmware file at /DRV_71QU/cis3R5B1.fw in that directory you extracted the files to.
In my case I then had to copy that firmware file to the /usr/share/sane/gt68xx directory.
Then the scanner actually worked rather well.
Good luck!

HP Officejet Wireless 4500 g510 n-z Scanner not detected

Hi! My husband and I purchased a new computer about a year ago and ever since then our HP officejet wireless printer, fax, scanner has not been fully functional. I have it attached to the CPU through USB. I have gone through all the driver downloads and software multiple times to no avail. My computer still doesn't recognize the scanner. I even downloaded the HP Print and Scan Doctor and it recognizes my product, it then tells me that "The full software solution for your product is not installed on this computer." Then I attempt to install the software and it says "download failed." Arghhhhh! What do I need to do to have a fully functional 3-in-1 printer on my computer. The product worked just fine on our previous computer but now I can't figure it out! Please help! Much gratitude!!!! Sarah

Welcome to the HP Forums Sarah, aka , I saw your post about the installation issues you have had with your Officejet 4500 Wireless on your Windows 8.1 system, and I would like to help! I am going to start my suggestions with performing a more "in depth" uninstall to clear out all of the printer files, restart the PC, and try downloading and installing again. Please respond back to me with the outcome! Go to the tiles screen, (start up screen)Start typing %temp%, open the folder starting with 7z, (Example: 7zS2356) Util, ccc, Uninstall_L3.When the uninstall has completed restart the computer.Delete all files you can from the temp folder. (Go to the start up screen, (tiles menu) type %temp%. Delete everything listed.)Now download and run the Full Feature Software installation from here: HP Officejet Full Feature Software and DriverTry printing and scanning. Good luck I hope this helps!Thank me for this reply by clicking the thumbs up icon below!

Windows 7 64 bit does not detect canon powershot A2500

I am beyond frustrated. My compaq laptop (6 months old) always worked fine w/ my old Kodak digital cam. I ordered this new canon for the xmas holidays. Yesterday I tried to connect the camera to the computer, but I keep getting error 43. I downloaded the suggested Zoom browser and its extention file from canono, nothing!!! My drivers are updated (new, but I still checked)... I wish I had took holiday pics w/ old camera as I at least would have the pics by now.
And for the record I removed all the Kodak software from my pc...
Any suggestions???
cassie

Hi Cassie,
If you have the Kodak software intalled, it's likely that this issue is caused by a conflict between that that software and the Canon software.
To try to get around this: Take a look at the bottom-right of your display. You'll see the time in the system tray. To the left of the time, you'll see some icons. Normally, with Windows 7, you'll need to click on the "^" to see the icons.
As you pass your mouse pointer over the icons, you'll see the name of the software. If you see "Kodak Easyshare" (or other imaging) software, right-click on this program, and choose "Exit".
You'll also want to exit any non-Canon software that deals with software for digital imaging, including image transfer and image editing.
If the issue persists, please contact us. When you do, please include your Windows 7 64-bit operating system as well as the Kodak software (if it's installed).

Epson RX530 scanner not detected

I have just connected a Epson stylus RX530 to a airport time capsule, the printer compatability listing states that scan and print should work, S/W updates all up to date. When the RX530 is connected via USB to the mac both print and scan works, when connected to the timecapsule only the print function works. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

When the RX530 is connected via USB to the mac both print and scan works, when connected to the timecapsule only the print function works. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
You are not doing anything wrong. Only the print function will work if you have your Epson device connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule......unless......something has changed in the last few days and Epson is now providing full feature drivers to allow the scan functionality.
To date, to our knowlege, no printer manufacturer has provided full feature drivers to Apple for their devices when used at the USB port of the AirPorts or Time Capsule. You might want to check with Epson support for clarification to see if they plan to provide full featured drivers for USB network use.
Chances are, the info you have is talking about functionality when connected directly to the USB port of a computer, not a network hookup via USB.

HT3669 iEPP, Easy Photo Print, App not 'detecting' my Canon MX870 printer/scanner.

Downloaded the iPod Touch iEPP Airprint app for printing wirelessly to my approved, Canon MX870 printer/scanner and the app can't detect it.
Thanks

I have been having the same issue with the Canon iEPP app not detecting the printer using an iPhone 4S, 5S and iPad Air. I was on the phone with Canon IT support and the devices and apps can communicate with the printer when I type in the printer IP address in the Safari browser.
I have Comcast Xfinity for interner and have a Linksys Wireless-G router.
I tried about 5 different free app which support my Canon MX870 printer and none can detect the printer.
Any suggestions?

Canon MP560 Printer is not detected by System Preferences

Hi everyone,
I am using a 2010 Macbook Pro with OS X Version 10.7.5, I have had this Canon MP560 Printer for about 2 years now and it has been working perfectly until lately when it starts to keep on returning "a communication error has occured" whenever I tried to print something.
I have read through the forum and noticed that people have experienced the same thing as me.
So for me, I have tried the following solutions:
1. Checking if the LAN connection is working and printing the LAN test page from printer. It does print ad says that wireless LAN is enabled an active.
2. I deleted the printer and scanner from System Preferences and try to re-add it
3. Update my software
When I tried to re-add it, there is no printer detected. I tried doing the step-by-step that PAHU recommended that worked for some one but unfortunately it does not work for me. My printer still does not appear when I tried to look up a printer.
(Here is the step by step that I followed:
The printer component of the MP560 can take longer to appear than the scanner component. The scanner uses Bonjour to advertise itself on the wireless network, while the printer component uses a proprietary protocol called "canonijnetwork". If you select to add a printer and have the Default Add Printer view open, you will see the MP560 as Bonjour Scanner in the Kind column. But if you wait at least 15 seconds more, the printer should appear showing "canonijnetwork" in the Kind column.
If this printer component does not appear after 30 seconds maximum then it would suggest a problem with the printer driver installation. So open Finder and navigate to HD > Library > Printers > Canon > BJPrinter and trash the contents of this folder. Then download the latest MP560 driver via this link and run the installer. With the installation completed, try to add the printer again.)
Since I have tried these suggestions but still is not successful I wonder what's wrong with my Printer/Macbook and if there's any other way to add printer (using IP address for example ). If anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!

Yes I can Ping the IP address from Network Utility.
Before, my Macbook couldn't even recognize the scanner, but now I can add the Scanner from System Preferences.
However, my printer is stll not detected. I am missing some sort of an application or something?

Mac OS X 10.9.3 does not detect the presence of Canon MX395 printer. Help?

Hi,
My printer/scanner was working fine before I upgraded to Mac OS X Mavericks. I now run OS X 10.9.3, the printer is Canon MX395.
Basically mr problem is that the printer is simply not detected. I turn it on and plug in the USB cable but nothing happens. I cannot view the printer in the list of printers in System Preferences > Printers & Scanners, nor can view it if I click Add. I have already spent 2 sessions of 3-4 hours following all steps provided in Apple Support pages about setting up printers and troubleshooting with printers (including reset printing system and deleting all canon related files/applications and installing everything again, meaning both drivers from canon and canon drivers from Apple) and I am sure that the printer is working and well connected.
Need help please!
Thanks,
Antoine

Hi all,
Update on my situation, my problem is solved.
I disinstalled and reinstalled many times everything to come to the conclusion that, in my case, installing the driver from Canon PROHIBITS the printer/scanner from working. Indeed, everything is now running fine with Apple driver for Canon printers (Apple Canon Printer Driver 3.0 for mac OS). BUT, if Canon driver is at the same time installed, computer is not being recognized. Having solely Canon driver without Apple driver also results in the printer not being recognized.
This may sound weird (at least to me) but that is how it seems to be. Hope this can help anyone.
Final solution:
1) disinstall everything printer related (printers, drivers, reset printing system)
> In my case, I did not reinstall Mavericks nor reset the whole OS
2) install the Apple driver (and ignore the one from Canon)
3) connect the printer, turn it on, should be working
Regards,
Antoine

How does one install Canon Imageclass mf 4800 scanner driver to imac?

I just purchased a Canon Imageclass 4890 wireless printer for my office. I successfully connected to my wireless network, and I can print from my imac rather new, purchased last year. But for the life of me I can not install the scanner driver, or it just won't take. I spoke with Apple support, but they really could not help me as the problem, apparently, is with the Canon software.
I also run Windows on my mac, and can both print and scan using this OS, although I can not print checks or reports, either in Windows or Mountain Lion.
I replaced my Canon 4680 (which worked fine in all aspects) with this printer because I wanted to free up some desk space and get rid of the USB cable, but this new printer has proved quite a problem so far.

I had the same problem so I called Canon support and they gave me the following instructions:
1. Open the MF Toolbox
2. They will give you the message that "Scanner is unavailable
3. Click the "Scan" button on the device and select "Remote Scan"
4. Click on the "MF ToolBox" next to the Apple on the top left corner of your screen and select "Network Scanner Setting" from the drop down menu
5. Click on the + Button to add a scanner
6. A screen should pop up with your network scanner on it. Select the correct scanner you want to add and close the window.
7. Then click on the "Scanner" tab in the MF Toolbox Mode and you should see your device have been added and start scanning.
These steps worked for me. Hope it helps! Cheers!
