[QUOTE="trevor25220, post: 1764341, member: 383454"] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [B]Suggestion 1[/B]: Place document on scanner, on Mac open [U]Canon Scan Utility from Applications[/U]. [B]Result 1[/B]: [U]No such utility[/U] in applications or utilities sub-folder. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [B]Suggestion 2[/B]: We had a Canon MG5620 that I just replaced with a Canon MX922. And scanning worked from the installed print queue window wirelessly for both. [B]Result 2[/B]: Only works while the print queue window is 'active', having just printed a document. A few seconds later the 'Scanner' button greys-out as the window becomes inactive -- ridiculous! Plugging the USB in activates the Scanner button ... no issue with stalling overnight like the USB print queue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [B]Suggestion 3[/B]: If that doesn't work, [U]open [B]Image Capture.app[/B][/U], click the "Share" disclosure and the wireless scanner/AIO shold show and then do its scanning thing. [B]Result 3[/B]: [U]Yes, only this works reliably but is not at all intuitive through the selection panes[/U]. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [B]Suggestion 4[/B]: Patrick's links ... [B]Result 4[/B]: Thanks but Canon is really poor at describing how to scan, especially wirelessly ... just read the foregoing ^. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [/QUOTE]
