Scanning with kodak 5300 easyshare printer/scanner

i have a kodak 5300 printer / scanner that i can't control the scanning from my computer.(i have to use the buttons on the scanner its self) The kodak home centre program on my mac only lets me select (which printer?), setup and maintain, there's no ability to operate the scanner! It's also supposed to be able to scan multiple photos but it only finds 1 of the 3 that i put in. Has anyone else had these problems ? What's the fix?

I seem to have the same problem as you all. In attempting to use the advertised multiple picture scanning option, I ended up using the image capture program, going to browse Devices, even though it was already under the device button. then selected "Use Twain UI" At that point I was able to use some piece of Kodak software that came up. When I enabled the option to look for multiple pictures and told it to do a preview scan, it found all the pictures on the glass, but would only let me scan and save them one at a time, which defeats the purpose. I am also curious as to the advertised OCR program that it automatically uses, I have yet to see that option or see it described in any documentation.

    iMac is connected via wirelss to printer/scanner. All was working OK until update.

    Assuming that the HP software is up-to-date, but still not working, have you tried Image Capture in the Applications folder. Does that work?

  • TS3938 Can no longer scan with my MP800 Canon printer

    I've seen lots of posts on this, and it is extremely frustrating that I'm starting to think it's just assumed that the owners of MP800 Canon printer/scanners will just toss out a perfectly good, little-used piece of hardware and buy something new. I've tried going to the HP site, loading the new drivers, etc.  I've also tried changing from MP Navigator to Image Capture, but nothing happens when I open the Scanner, except for an empty screen that turns completely white when I click on Show Details.
    I am REALLY disappointed in Apple OS update.  In the PC world (which I bought a mac to get away from) I would just uninstall the entire printer, then re-install it and count on the correct drivers etc. to be loaded.  I've tried to find a way to do this on the forums, but no luck.  Is there any way to un-install the printer/scanner completely?  And then re-install it to pick up the new drivers/software or whatever, that would work?

    Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers should resolve this issue.  Please perform the following to remove the currently installed drivers:  (If any items are not listed, move on to the next step.)
    1. Open Finder
    2. Open the 'Library' folder.
    3. Open the 'Printers' folder.
    4. Open the 'Canon' folder.
    5. Send the 'BJ Printer' folder to the trash.
    6. Return to the 'Library' folder.
    7. Open the 'Receipts' folder.
    8. Locate any items related to your printer and send them to the trash.
    Leave the 'Canon Printer Drivers.pkg' file in the folder if it happens to be listed.
    9. Return to the 'Library' folder.
    10. Open 'Image Capture'.
    11. Open the 'Twain Data Sources' folder.
    12. Send any Canon files related to your printer to the trash.
    13. Open the Applications folder.
    14. Open the Canon Utilities folder.
    15. Send the MP Navigator to the trash.
    16. Restart your computer.
    To get your MP800 Canon printer operating , please follow these steps:
    Download  the following  drivers:
    mcpd-mac-mp800-10_51_2-ea11.dmg
    msd_-mac-mp800-12_13_3-ej7.dmg
    mpnosx207ej7.dmg
    Once the downloads are completed,   open each installer package to begin setup.
    Once this process is completed, try scanning and printing with your MP800 Canon printer.

  • Can No Longer Scan With Canon MG5220 But Printing Works Fine

    Hello,
    I have not had luck with Canon so hoping my Apple community can come through for me   Here is my problem.  I have a Canon MG5220 "all-in-one" that I am able to print to just fine.  I was able to scan a year ago but something has changed and I am no longer able to scan.  I have all the Canon software and the error I get is as follows when using MP Navigator 4.0 EX:
    "Error 2.10 -  Cannot communicate with scanner. Cable may be disconnected or scanner is turned off. Check status."
    I have deleted and re-added my printer several times but that has not done anything.  I believe there was a time in the past when it was scanning properly that I had a separate printer icon under "Printers" on left of  "Print and Scan" sscreen for the scanner but not sure (can someone confirm?).  Regardless, I only have one now. 
    My printer is connected as follows: MG5220 is wireless to my FiOS Actiontec router and then hardwired Ethernet to iMac. I have turned Wi-Fi status on and off o Mac and that has not made a difference.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    epie

    Open Finder and navigate to Applications > Canon Utilities > IJ Network Scanner Selector EX and open the Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX utility. This utility will search your local network for the MG5220 and if found, should show something like below.
    If the MG5220 is found, ensure that it is selected - as opposed to "Do Not Use" - and then press the OK button.
    Now open MP Navigator and select the Preferences (as shown below)
    From the Preferences window, with the General tab selected, ensure you have the MP5200 Series Network set as shown below (which is for my wireless MG6250).
    If it is set, press the OK button to close the Preferences window and then see if you can scan.

  • Cannot SCAN with Samsung SCX-4500 Printer, New iMac w/Leopard

    I just purchased at an Apple retail store, a brand new 24" iMac along with a Samsung SCX-4500 laser printer, copier and scanner. Bad news is I can't get the scanner function to work. It prints and copies but doesn't scan. I went to Samsung and downloaded the lasted and greatest drivers but no scanning capability yet. Has anyone else purchased this printer? Is it compatible with OX 10.5 or is the Apple store just trying to get rid of printers that don't seem to work with Leopard. This bugs me. Any help would be great.

    This is from another forum as I was looking for the answer to the same issue:
    First off, when Samsung labels a button "Scan to PC", they mean it. That button only works with Windows PCs not Macs.
    To get it to the Samsung SCX 4500 to scan on your Mac you need to acquire the image using some other software. I used Preview.
    Put the picture or document that you want scanned on the bed. Open Preview. From the File menu, select the Import Image... option.
    The scanner activates and you will see, you guessed it, a preview of what is to be scanned. Notice that the scan button is grayed out.
    You now have to click and drag a box around what you want scanned. Once you draw your box identifying the exact image to be scanned, the Scan button is enabled. Now adjust any options, and hit Scan. Enjoy.

  • Scanning with Kodak i65 and Vista

    Hi,
    I am having trouble 'Creating a PDF from Scanner' with a Kodak i65 scanner. Everytime I attempt to scan a document with Acrobat 8 and Vista I receive a scanning failed message. The 'Scan Validation Tool' scans documents fine to the .tiff format however when I try to scan documents with Acrobat 8 it doesn't work and I get 'Scanning failed.'
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    I have the exact same problem. Except I have the Kodak i30 Scanner. I have Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2 (with the Security Update 1 installed).
    In the past, I ran the following configurations on an older computer with no problems:
    - Windows XP & Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 (with all of its various updates)
    - Windows Vista & Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 (with all of its various updates)
    - Windows Vista & Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2 (with the Security Update 1 installed)
    However, when I built a new computer, installed Windows Vista Ultimate, installed the Kodak i30 Scanner, I receive a "Scanning failed." error everytime I try to scan directly into Acrobat.
    BTW, I HAVE "tried with latest Scan Validation Tool and firmware update from Kodak site." Updating the SVT and firmware neither helped nor hurt.
    Has anyone had a successful fix to this issue?

  • Problem with my lexmark P4350 printer/ scanner

    It seems to work ok with regular printing but when I tried to print some photos the results were weak faded colours and some vertical lines that should not be there. I tried cleaning the cartridges both manually and mechanically with no good effect. Anyone have any other suggestions please. Thanks

    Suggest that you also crosspost in the Printing & Faxing Forums. You should get more responses there.
    Also, have you contacted Lexmark and/or visited their website to determine if you need a driver update?
    Have you considered updating your OS?

  • Kodak 5300 - Cannot print after Leopard install

    1) Latest drivers from Kodak reinstalled
    2) Get a "raster stream error" when you try to print. Any attempt at printing results in stopped jobs due to this error.
    Sean

    Much to my surprise, I received a reply from Kodak a mere few hours after emailing them on Sunday morning. They advised me that a new version of their all-in-one printer software (1.2.0 Release 3) for Leopard will be available on the web on Monday, October 29th.

  • Since installing Firefox 4.0 I cannot scan on my HP Photosmart C4480 printer/scanner/copier. Do I need to use older version of Firefox?

    Installed Firefox 4.0 after using Internet Explorer for many years. Everything works fine, except cannot scan on HP Photosmart C4480 printer/scanner/copier. Can copy and use printer, just cannot scan pictures in any more. HP help center will not open.

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

  • Which Colour Laser Printer/Scanner for Yosemite and Adobe Acrobat XI?

    Since upgrading my mac to 10.10 my Epson DX4400 will not scan any more, even with the latest Epson driver update.
    I need a better printer anyway, so I would like to replace it with a colour laser printer & scanner.  But I want to make sure I get one that will work with OSX 10.10.2 and Adobe Acrobat XI
    Does anyone have any recommendations?

  • Hello, I currently have a MacBook snow leapord and i'm trying to connect it with my Canon MP560 printer, i put in the CD and installed everything properly but now when i add a printer it says a Queue already exists, i click continue and nothing happens???

    Hello,
    I'm using a MacBook Snow Leapord and I'm trying to connect it with my Canon MP560 printer/scanner.
    I installed the CD and followed along with the manual and did everything it asked, at the end it told me it was finished.
    So then I went to go print something and an error had occured so i went to the file menu on Microsoft Word for
    Mac and clicked Print/Add Printer and then i click on the Canon MP560 series-1 as it was the only one to click on.
    When I did it stated that I already has a Queue for this printer and if I'd like to add a new one so I clicked continue and nothing
    had happend. PLEASE HELP
    sincerely,
    Laura.

    I would recommend to download the driver appropriate for your system from the Canon webiste or, after installing it, to run software update and it will detect it for you.
    If you have the last driver appropriate for your system, you may wish to reset the printing system. To do this, go to Sys prefs/print and fax and, upon clicking minus button, also press Option/alt key. You will be asked to confirm, do it. Then, add the printer by pressing plus button, it should work now.
    But, before doing this, download the last good driver, CDs usually contain outdated drivers.

    I just hooked up my Canon MP830 printer/scanner/fax to my MAC and can print but can't scan.  Anyone out there know what to do with this?

    Have you downloaded the approriate Snow Leopard drivers for that printer? Make sure you get the appropriate and latest MP Navigator, as you start scans from the computer, not the all-in-one.  Get them from http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mp_s eries/pixma_mp830#DriversAndSoftware
